The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray S11pe11>isor of Records January 28, 2020 SPR20/0139 Cynthia M. Page Records Access Officer Fall River Police Department 685 Pleasant Street Fall River, MA 02721 Dear Ms. Page: I have received the petition of Mr. Antonio Branco appealing the nonresponse of the Fall River Police Department (Department) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 1O A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Mr. Branco requested copies of search warrants conducted on several dates at an identified address. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Mr. Branco petitioned this office and this appeal was opened as a result. The Department's response On January 27th the Depaiiment informed a member of the Public Records Division that a response has been provided to Mr. Branco. Whereas the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Depaiiment's lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Branco may appeal the substantive nature of the Department's response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Antonio Branco 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
