The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor ofR ecords March 12, 2020 SPR20/0524 Daniel DeBlander, Esq. Middlesex District Attorney's Office 15 Commonwealth A venue Woburn, MA 01801 Dear Attorney DeBlander: I have received the petition of Michael Morrissette appealing the nonresponse of the Middlesex District Attorney's Office (Office) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § lOA; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Mr. Morrissette requested records involving himself within the possession of the Office. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Mr. Morrissette petitioned this office and this appeal was opened as a result. Subsequent to the request for an appeal, I learned that the Office responded to Mr. Morrissette's request with a mailed response sent on March 5, 2020. Whereas the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Office's lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Morrissette may appeal the substantive nature of the Office's response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Michael Morrissette 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
