Dear Requester:
On May 13, 2021, the Maryland State Police received your request made under
the Public Information Act (Annotated Code of Maryland, General Provisions
Article §§ 4-101 through 4-601) for the information captioned above.
I am writing to advise that it will take us more than 10 working days to
produce the requested records. The delay is due to the time required to
perform a thorough search of our records and to conduct the necessary
review process. Once all of the records have been collected, they must be
reviewed to determine whether they are, in whole or in part, exempt from
disclosure under the Act. If any are to be withheld or redacted, an
explanation will be provided. If there is a fee associated with the
processing of the request, you will receive an itemized invoice.
We believe that we will be able to respond to your request within 30 days
of the date it was received.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns
regarding your request.
Sincerely,
