Brenes, Amberlie v. Department of State Police (SPR 20260379)

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records February 11, 2026 SPR26/0379 Allison Mondello Public Records Manager Massachusetts Department of State Police 50 Maple Street Milford, MA 01757 Dear Ms. Mondello: I have received the petition of Amberlie Brenes, of Altman Nussbaum Shunnarah Trial Attorneys, appealing the nonresponse of the Department of State Police to a request for public records. See G. L. c. 66, § 10A; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). On November 17, 2026, Ms. Brenes requested “the police report of [an identified incident].” Claiming to not yet have received responsive records, Ms. Brenes petitioned this office and this appeal, SPR26/0379, was opened as a result. Subsequently, I learned that the Department provided Ms. Brenes with a response dated February 5, 2026. 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. Ms. Brenes may appeal the substantive nature of the Department’s response within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, Manza Arthur Supervisor of Records cc: Amberlie Brenes 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
