The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records May 24, 2021 SPR21/1204 Captain Michelle Mangino Records Access Officer (RAO) Bureau of Administration, Commander Revere Police Department 400 Revere Beach Blvd Revere, MA 02151 Dear Captain Mangino: I have received the petition of Attorney Timothy Callinan of Callinan Magner Law Group, LLP, appealing the nonresponse of the Revere Police Department (Department) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On April 22, 2021, Attorney Callinan requested the following: 1. “All records of the above-described police incident on 04/14/2021, which occurred at approximately 12:00 P.M., including, but not limited to: a. The complete IMC record of the Incident/Arrest Report, including the journal entry and all attachments to said report; b. Any and all reports, including accident reports, by Chief… regarding the above described event; c. All recordings of the radio transmissions associated with the above- described event; d. A copy of any Massachusetts Uniformed Citation issued to [a named individual] associated with the above-described event; 2. A copy of the Revere Police Department’s Use of Force Policy; and 3. A copy of any and all Revere Police Department policies regarding pursuits of motor vehicles and/or pedestrians.” Claiming to not yet have received a response, Attorney Callinan petitioned this office and this appeal was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Department provided Attorney Callinan with a response to his request dated May 19, 2021. Where the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Department’s lack of response to Attorney Callinan’s request, I will now consider this 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

Captain Michelle Mangino SPR21/1204 Page 2 May 24, 2021 administrative appeal closed. Attorney Callinan 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: Attorney Timothy Callinan
