Hi there

Record request #19-1074 has been closed. The closure reason supplied was:

Dear Beryl Lipton,

Regarding your request for financial reports, responding to this request would require the redaction of thousands of lines of information personally identifying inmates and third-parties and would therefore require a tremendous and unjustifiable expenditure of Department time and resources. Even a clearly framed request for non-exempt material may be denied as unduly burdensome. (American Civil Liberties Union Foundation v. Deukmejian (1982) 32 Cal.App.3d 440; California First Amendment Coalition v. Superior Court (1998) 67 Cal.App.4th 159, 166.) Furthermore, this information does not serve any public interest in that the documents already provided detail the revenue agreement.

For the reasons outlined above, your request is respectfully denied.
