Dear David Bixenspan:
This is in response to your request dated March 8, 2018, under New York's Freedom of Information Law (FOIL) in which you seek:
Records of all licensed professional wrestling events held on the following dates (including, but not limited to, notification forms, inspector reports, proof of insurance, and correspondence between the commission and promoters): February 25, 2017; April 22, 2017; April 23, 2017; June 25, 2017; October 14, 2017
The Department's search of our records is complete and disclosable records have been identified. The records are provided herewith at no charge.
State agencies are required by FOIL and the Personal Privacy Protection Law (Public Officers Law §§ 87[2][b], 89[2], and 96[1]) to redact the personal identifying information from these records that, if disclosed, could constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. Accordingly, medical notes in the Physician's Reports, where they appeared in these records, have been redacted.
If any document has been withheld, or if any information has been redacted, or if you believe that you have not been provided all disclosable records responsive to your request, you have the right to treat this response as a partial denial. Pursuant to Public Officers Law § 89(4) you have the right to submit an appeal within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of this correspondence. Any such appeal must be in writing and addressed to: Joseph Ball, Records Appeals Officer, NYS Department of State, One Commerce Plaza 11th Floor, 99 Washington Avenue, Suite 1120, Albany, New York 12231-0001.
Sincerely,
