Dear Mr. Hahn:
I am writing to acknowledge receipt of your email, dated and received April 21, 2019, in which you seek records pursuant to New York Public Officers Law, Article 6, sections 84 et seq., the Freedom of Information Law ("FOIL"). Your request cannot be fulfilled because the requested records relate to a case that is sealed pursuant to Criminal Procedure Law § 160.50 and, thus, fall outside the ambit of FOIL disclosure. See Public Officers Law § 87(2)(a).
You may appeal from this determination within thirty days by writing to: George B. Forbes, Esq., FOIL Appeals Officer, Kings County District Attorney's Office, 350 Jay Street, 20th Floor, Brooklyn, NY 11201. ADA Forbes is copied on this e-mail.
Sincerely,
Douglas O'Connell
