Walk It Through: The Records Request

Promptly, 10 business days to certify or ask the attorney general, and no questions why.

A resident wants a city's police overtime records and emails the request.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

One records request to a city. The exceptions to disclosure, charges for copies, and the attorney general's decision are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
