To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to Montana's Constitution, Article II, § 9, I hereby request the following records:

A list of all publications (newspapers, magazines, trade journals) that the Attorney General's office is currently subscribed to.

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 would request your response within ten (10) business days.

Sincerely,

Troy Carter

Your request has been received. Since these records are tied to payments (i.e., subscriptions), our fiscal staff will have to look into it. I know they’re swamped right now in preparation for the legislative session, but we will work on this and get you something ASAP.

Thanks,
John
