Records Access Officer Hampden County District Attorney’s Office 50 State Street Springfield, MA 01102 Dear Attorney Pieropan: I have received the petition of Jose L. Negron appealing the nonresponse of the Hampden County District Attorney’s Office (Office) to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On September 6, 2022, Mr. Negron requested, “… documents and information regarding the ‘Brady List’ under Hampden County in related post-conviction relief…” Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Mr. Negron petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR22/2392, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Office provided Mr. Negron with a response dated October 26, 2022. Where 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. Negron may appeal the substantive nature of the Office’s response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Jose L.
