To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Texas Public Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
I am requesting copies of all complaints submitted to the Commission, either on-line or in writing, dating back to January 1, 2012. I am also requesting copies of any responses in a complaint chain.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, 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 look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Ben Hudson

Diana,
Thank you for your help and prompt response to my request, I appreciate it.
Regarding the fees outlined in your response: I realize that there are upwards of 100 facilities for which I have requested information over a 5+ year span. How would the fee estimate be affected if i limited my search to 32 specific facilities and began the search as of 1/1/2014? I realize that the specific facilities list would be necessary to arrive at a firm number, but would it be possible to provide a rough estimate based on these criteria?
Thank you,
Ben Hudson

Ben,
The Commission has 242 facilities currently under its purview. Please provide a list of jails and I will revise the estimate.
