The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supen,isor ofR ecords May 4, 2018 SPR18/617 Lisa Riccobene Records Access Officer Office of the Chief Medical Examiner 720 Albany Street Boston, MA 02118-2518 Dear Ms. Riccobene: I have received the petition of Emory Snell, Jr. appealing the nonresponse of the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (Office) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 1O A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Mr. Snell requested the CV of a former employee. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Mr. Snell petitioned this office and this appeal was opened as a result. Subsequent to the intervention by a staff member of the Public Records Division, I learned that a response was provided to Mr. Snell on M_ay 4, 2018. Accordingly, as the basis of this appeal was the Office's failure to provide a response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Snell may appeal the substantive nature of the Office's response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, ~~ Supervisor of Records cc Emory Snell, Jr. One Ashburton Place, Room 1719, Boston, Massachusetts 02108 • (617) 727-2832• Fax: (617) 727-5914 sec.state.ma.us/pre• pre@sec.state.ma.us
