On Feb. 10, 2015:

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the the Louisiana Public Records Act, I hereby request the
following records:

All procedures and associated forms (blank) relevant to the reporting of
inmate injuries and death at both public and privately-run correctional
facilities, should differences apply.

I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this
request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made
available to the general public free of charge as part of the public
information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the
news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for
commercial usage.

In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would
inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would
prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available
or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I
look forward to receiving your response to this request within 3 business
days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Beryl Lipton
