Department of Criminal Justice Information Services 200 Arlington Street, Suite 2200 Chelsea, MA 02150 Dear Attorney Koulouris: I have received the petition of Attorney Debbie Freitas appealing the nonresponse of the Department of Criminal Justice Information Services (Department) to her request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Attorney Freitas submitted a request for records related to certain license plate queries within the possession of the Department. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Attorney Freitas petitioned this office and this appeal was opened as a result. Subsequent to the intervention by a member of the Public Records Division, this office was notified that a response was provided, dated Tuesday, March 9, 2021. Whereas this matter was opened based upon the Department’s lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Attorney Freitas may appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Attorney Debbie Freitas 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
