SEATTLE CITY ATTORNEY – Request for a complete electronic copy (.PDF) of all public documents filed with the Clerk of the Court in case # 21-2-11739-9 SEA - IRWIN ET ANO VS CITY OF SEATTLE.

December 21, 2022

To Whom It May Concern:

On July 9, 2021 the Columbian reported:

“SEATTLE (AP) — Two now-former public records officers who blew the whistle about Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan’s missing text messages have each filed $5 million claims against the city, saying they faced retaliation and felt compelled to resign.
Records officer Stacy Irwin, with support from colleague Kimberly Ferreiro, reported to the Seattle Ethics and Elections Commission that the mayor’s office had broken the Public Records Act in responding to requests from journalists and others for Durkan’s communications. The requests focused on decisions Durkan and other city officials made amid racial justice protests and unrest in the city’s Capitol Hill neighborhood last year.

The claims allege Irwin and Ferreiro were required to “perform illegal acts” and “subjected to scorn, ridicule, abuse and hostility” in retaliation for trying to comply with the law, The Seattle Times reported.”

Pursuant to the Washington Public Records Act [RCW 42.56] I hereby request the following records in the care custody or control of the SEATTLE CITY ATTORNEY or in the alternative the CITY OF SEATTLE:

1. I request a complete electronic .pdf copy of all public documents filed with the King County Superior Clerk of the Court in case # 21-2-11739-9 SEA - IRWIN ET ANO VS CITY OF SEATTLE. The documents requested should be exact .pdf copies of the attached screenshot from the King County Superior Court Clerk’s office (attached).

Documents requested include all court filings of all participants both plaintiff and defendant.

Thank you for your email. I am responding on behalf of the King County Executive Branch only per King County Code 2.12.005 and 2.12.230(B). The records that you are seeking would be held by the King County Superior Court and not the King County Executive Branch. You can make a request by contacting them at the following:

Superior Court Records Email Address:

SCAdminRecordsOffice@kingcounty.gov<mailto:SCAdminRecordsOffice@kingcounty.gov>

Your request also appears to be addressed to the Seattle City Attorney. I would recommend contacting the City of Seattle directly to request their records. I now consider your request to be closed.

Hello Mr. Wade,

Thank you for your response. You are directing me to the Superior Court to seek the records I have requested from the Seattle City Attorney. Some questions:

1. You are claiming the Seattle City Attorney's office does not possess ANY electronic .pdf copies of any public documents filed with the King County Superior Clerk of the Court in case # 21-2-11739-9 SEA - IRWIN ET ANO VS CITY OF SEATTLE. No paper records, no email records, no .pdf records, nothing in email or on computer. Nothing. NO RECORDS.
2. What Seattle City Attorney agency locations were searched for responsive records?
3. Is this request now closed?

Thank you.

From: Seattle City Attorney

Good morning. In response to your questions, which are below:

1. You are claiming the Seattle City Attorney's office does not possess ANY electronic .pdf copies of any public documents filed with the King County Superior Clerk of the Court in case # 21-2-11739-9 SEA - IRWIN ET ANO VS CITY OF SEATTLE. No paper records, no email records, no .pdf records, nothing in email or on computer. Nothing. NO RECORDS.
2. What Seattle City Attorney agency locations were searched for responsive records?
3. Is this request now closed?
We are not the Seattle City Attorney’s Office. This is the King County Public Records Program. You are requesting Seattle City Attorney records which would be held by the City of Seattle, not King County. If the Seattle City Attorney’s Office filed records with the King County Superior Court, you would need to contact the Court for those records. That is why you were provided with the Court referral in our previous email.

Please contact the Seattle City Attorney using the link below:
https://www.seattle.gov/cityattorney

To confirm, yes your request with the King County Executive Branch is closed. Please contact the City of Seattle directly for Seattle City Attorney records, and contact the Superior Court directly to request any records they may have.
Regards,
The Public Records Program

SEATTLE CITY ATTORNEY – Request for a complete electronic copy (.PDF) of all public documents filed with the Clerk of the Court in case # 21-2-11739-9 SEA - IRWIN ET ANO VS CITY OF SEATTLE.

December 22, 2022

Via email to: thomas.kuffel@seattle.gov

To Whom It May Concern:

On July 9, 2021 the Columbian reported:

“SEATTLE (AP) — Two now-former public records officers who blew the whistle about Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan’s missing text messages have each filed $5 million claims against the city, saying they faced retaliation and felt compelled to resign.
Records officer Stacy Irwin, with support from colleague Kimberly Ferreiro, reported to the Seattle Ethics and Elections Commission that the mayor’s office had broken the Public Records Act in responding to requests from journalists and others for Durkan’s communications. The requests focused on decisions Durkan and other city officials made amid racial justice protests and unrest in the city’s Capitol Hill neighborhood last year.

The claims allege Irwin and Ferreiro were required to “perform illegal acts” and “subjected to scorn, ridicule, abuse and hostility” in retaliation for trying to comply with the law, The Seattle Times reported.”

Pursuant to the Washington Public Records Act [RCW 42.56] I hereby request the following records in the care custody or control of the SEATTLE CITY ATTORNEY or in the alternative the CITY OF SEATTLE:

1. I request a complete electronic .pdf copy of all public documents filed with the King County Superior Clerk of the Court in case # 21-2-11739-9 SEA - IRWIN ET ANO VS CITY OF SEATTLE. The documents requested should be exact .pdf copies of the attached screenshot from the King County Superior Court Clerk’s office (attached).

Documents requested include all court filings of all participants both plaintiff and defendant.

PRODUCTION AND DELIVERY OF ELECTRONIC RECORDS

The use of 3rd party “portals” (Such as GOVQA or NEXTREQUEST) for communication and production of records in response to a public records request is optional for the requestor in the State of Washington. Respectfully we decline to use any 3rd party "portal" system, specifically GOVQA and NEXTREQUEST.

Please provide all records electronically via direct email attachment, or via no password, no registration internet cloud-based download link.

Please do not direct or invite us to use, register for, or communicate with your agency via any 3rd party portal including but not limited to FOIAOnline, GovQA, NextRequest, FOIAExpress, JustFOIA FOIADirect, WebForm, or any other commercial 3rd party records portal service.

RCW 42.56.080 - Identifiable records—Facilities for copying—Availability of public records.
"...Agencies shall honor requests received in person during an agency's normal office hours, or by mail or email, for identifiable public records unless exempted by provisions of this chapter.
No official format is required for making a records request; however, agencies may recommend that requestors submit requests using an agency provided form or web page."

This public records request is being made via email. This public records request will be honored and fulfilled by your agency via email as requested or relief will be sought per statute.

NATIVE ELECTRONIC FORMAT

Please provide all identified public records in their NATIVE electronic format. Unless the records exist IN PAPER FORM ONLY, DO NOT instead create new records by printing native stored electronic files, then scanning and re-printing these newly scanned prints only to reproduce them in again in electronic production.

FEES

In the event that there are fees, please inform us of the total charges in advance of fulfilling the request in strict compliance with all provisions of the Washington State Public Records Act.

EXEMPTION LOGS

Please ensure all redactions or exemptions claimed by your agency in the production of responsive records are accompanied by a complete and detailed exemption log noting the valid legal reason for each exemption at each redaction location in the record produced, as well as the specific number of pages if any that your agency redacts or withholds in their entirety. Each redaction should be noted by footnote or by a clear reference to the specific justification for that redaction, and only the minimal exempt portion of any record may be withheld.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. We look forward to receiving your response to this request within 5 business days, as the statute requires.

On July 9, 2021 the Columbian reported:

“SEATTLE (AP) — Two now-former public records officers who blew the whistle about Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan’s missing text messages have each filed $5 million claims against the city, saying they faced retaliation and felt compelled to resign.
Records officer Stacy Irwin, with support from colleague Kimberly Ferreiro, reported to the Seattle Ethics and Elections Commission that the mayor’s office had broken the Public Records Act in responding to requests from journalists and others for Durkan’s communications. The requests focused on decisions Durkan and other city officials made amid racial justice protests and unrest in the city’s Capitol Hill neighborhood last year.

The claims allege Irwin and Ferreiro were required to “perform illegal acts” and “subjected to scorn, ridicule, abuse and hostility” in retaliation for trying to comply with the law, The Seattle Times reported.”

Pursuant to the Washington Public Records Act [RCW 42.56] I hereby request the following records in the care custody or control of the SEATTLE CITY ATTORNEY or in the alternative the CITY OF SEATTLE:

1. I request a complete electronic .pdf copy of all public documents filed with the King County Superior Clerk of the Court in case # 21-2-11739-9 SEA - IRWIN ET ANO VS CITY OF SEATTLE.

RE PAYMENT: Payment was made on Jan. 28, 2023. Your office "voided" the check. Another payment was made March 8, 2023. Dont know what your office did with that. Fairly painful.

From: Seattle City Attorney

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to us. In speaking with the public disclosure officer handling your case, we have not received payment. If you can provide us with the information on when and where you sent the check(s), that will help us track this down within the City.

Nevertheless, we understand that the department did provide you the installment twice:

1. Through the GovQA portal that you can access and download per the directions provided to you
2. While it is not our policy to upload documents to third party sites, the department provided you records via the link you provided.
If you are continuing to have difficulties with your website, please contact the public disclosure officer through the GovQA portal and we can discuss alternative ways to send you the documents and the costs associated with them.

Thank you,

Pursuant to the Washington Public Records Act [RCW 42.56] I hereby request the following records in the care custody or control of the SEATTLE CITY ATTORNEY or in the alternative the CITY OF SEATTLE:

1. I request a complete electronic .pdf copy of all public documents filed with the King County Superior Clerk of the Court in case # 21-2-11739-9 SEA - IRWIN ET ANO VS CITY OF SEATTLE. The documents requested should be exact .pdf copies of the attached screenshot from the King County Superior Court Clerk’s office (attached).

Documents requested include all court filings of all participants both plaintiff and defendant.

PRODUCTION AND DELIVERY OF ELECTRONIC RECORDS

The use of 3rd party “portals” (Such as GOVQA or NEXTREQUEST) for communication and production of records in response to a public records request is optional for the requestor in the State of Washington. Respectfully we decline to use any 3rd party "portal" system, specifically GOVQA and NEXTREQUEST.

Please provide all records electronically via direct email attachment, or via no password, no registration internet cloud-based download link.

Please do not direct or invite us to use, register for, or communicate with your agency via any 3rd party portal including but not limited to FOIAOnline, GovQA, NextRequest, FOIAExpress, JustFOIA FOIADirect, WebForm, or any other commercial 3rd party records portal service.

RCW 42.56.080 - Identifiable records—Facilities for copying—Availability of public records.
"...Agencies shall honor requests received in person during an agency's normal office hours, or by mail or email, for identifiable public records unless exempted by provisions of this chapter.
No official format is required for making a records request; however, agencies may recommend that requestors submit requests using an agency provided form or web page."

This public records request is being made via email. This public records request will be honored and fulfilled by your agency via email as requested or relief will be sought per statute.

NATIVE ELECTRONIC FORMAT

Please provide all identified public records in their NATIVE electronic format. Unless the records exist IN PAPER FORM ONLY, DO NOT instead create new records by printing native stored electronic files, then scanning and re-printing these newly scanned prints only to reproduce them in again in electronic production.

FEES

In the event that there are fees, please inform us of the total charges in advance of fulfilling the request in strict compliance with all provisions of the Washington State Public Records Act.

EXEMPTION LOGS

Please ensure all redactions or exemptions claimed by your agency in the production of responsive records are accompanied by a complete and detailed exemption log noting the valid legal reason for each exemption at each redaction location in the record produced, as well as the specific number of pages if any that your agency redacts or withholds in their entirety. Each redaction should be noted by footnote or by a clear reference to the specific justification for that redaction, and only the minimal exempt portion of any record may be withheld.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. We look forward to receiving your response to this request within 5 business days, as the statute requires.
