Subject: FW: Finger Print Status FOI #12-008
To: Commissioner Ruben Bradford, c/o Trooper Hatfield, Sgt. Mancini and Atty. Dawn Hellier,
As you know, this request was initially made on January 4[SUP]th[/SUP] 2012.
For the Record, I believe that the Commissioner is the proper “custodian of the records” and should be able to mandate compliance with state law regarding access to public records in his agency.
If the individuals you have asked have not complied with your request, you may find it advantageous to make the Commissioner aware of the situation.
Should this issue require that I file a complaint with the FOI and seek civil penalties against the Commissioner, please be prepared to explain and justify the current delays in providing the requested prompt access.
I have just left a verbal voice mail and requested that it be preserved for any possible FOI hearing regarding this request.
I am concerned that this FOI request may be delayed while FOI requests made after the initial request was made are honored and completed.
The information is time sensitive and involves a core constitutional right to acquire the Permit or Eligibility Certificate needed to exercise a core Federal and State Right to obtain and possess firearms in the home of those who are currently attempting to obtain same.
If I do not have a reasonable explanation for the current delay, I will file with the FOIC by the end of today or tomorrow.
Respectfully,
