Dear Mr. Neidenbach,

Thank you for your records request, a copy of which is included below. In order to perform a preliminary search for emails to the four organizations listed in your request, I will need you to provide me with the alias (@_________) for each. Otherwise, the search will only capture emails where the names of the organizations are mentioned.

Dear Mr. Neidenbach,

This is in further response to your Sunshine Law request, a copy of which is included below for reference. Your request has been assigned tracking #6333.

The estimated cost for search, research and retrieval of the documents responsive to your request is $185.40. This estimate is based on an IT search for the names you have listed in your request and not their actual email addresses, since those were not provided.

The University is not prepared to waive or reduce the cost of these incurred expenses and we would require payment in advance of production of the documents. If it appears the cost incurred will significantly exceed the estimate, we will notify you before proceeding further. Of course, if the actual cost is less than your deposit, you will be issued a refund.

If you would like for the University to complete its response, please remit a check in the amount of $185.40 to my attention at the address given below. The check should be made payable to "The Curators of the University of Missouri."

I am trying to work with Muckrock on this. The system is not allowing me to use the credential in the email you sent. These emails are publicly posted automatically on the Muckrock.com page, and I am hoping someone on the internet did not just swoop in and change the password on me. Is it possible to set me up one at welovegv@gmail.com? My personal email address?

Stephan Neidenbach

From: UM Custodian of Records

Yes, I’ll send you another email with the attachment to that email address. Let me know if you receive it. Thanks.
