Jim Haddadin v. Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (SPR 20192510)

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor ofR ecords December 27, 2019 SPR19/2510 Julie A. Ciollo, Esq. Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority 10 Park Plaza, Suite 7760 Boston, MA 02116 Dear Attorney Ciollo: I have received the petition of Jim Haddadin appealing the nonresponse of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (Authority) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § lOA; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Mr. Haddadin requested several categories ofrecords within the possession of the Authority. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Mr. Haddadin petitioned this office and this appeal was opened as a result. Subsequent to the request for an appeal, I learned that the Authority responded to Mr. Haddadin's request with a fee estimate sent on December 23, 2019. Whereas the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Authority's lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. I understand Mr. Haddadin has appealed this fee estimate. A new appeal, SPR19/2539, has been opened to determine the reasonableness of the fee estimate. Sincerely, ~ Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Jim Haddadin 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
