The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records June 11, 2024 SPR24/1608 Brenda Perez Police Sergeant Brockton Police Department 7 Commercial Street Brockton, MA 02302 Dear Sergeant Perez: I have received the petition of Jonas Fransique appealing the nonresponse of the Brockton Police Department to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On April 15, 2024, Mr. Fransique requested an identified case file for a May 7, 2004 incident. Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Mr. Fransique petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR24/1608, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Department provided Mr. Fransique with a response on May 31, 2024. Where 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. Fransique may appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s May 31st response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Jonas Fransique 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
