See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On January 30, 2023, Ms. DiNatale requested “… an electronic copy of all the arrests made by the police department from December 1, 2022 to January 30, 2023.” Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Ms. DiNatale petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR23/0385, was opened as a result.

Accordingly, the Department is ordered to provide Ms. DiNatale with a response to her request, provided in a manner consistent with this order, the Public Records Law and its Regulations within ten (10) business days. A copy of any such response must be provided to this office. It is preferable to send an electronic copy of this response to this office at pre@sec.state.ma.us. Ms. DiNatale may appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1).
