The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records November 21, 2022 SPR22/2519 Samuel A. Miller, Esq. Department of State Police Crime Lab 124 Acton Street Maynard, MA 01754 Dear Attorney Miller: I have received the petition of Alex Scesny appealing the nonresponse of the Department of State Police (Department) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On September 26, 2022, Mr. Scesny requested a particular crime file. Claiming to not yet have received a response, Mr. Scesny petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR22/2519, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Department provided a response to Mr. Scesny on November 15, 2022. Where the basis of this appeal was opened as a result of the Department’s lack of a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Scesny may appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s response within 90 days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Alex Scesny 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
