To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Texas Public Information Act , I hereby request the following records:
All contracts (and their amendments) and memorandums of understanding entered into by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for services and activities related to the Houston Processing Center (https://www.cca.com/facilities/houston-processing-center)
I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.
In the event that fees cannot be waived, 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.

Good morning, Mr. Lipton.
You sent 3 emails to Jason Clark on February 18th regarding requests you made back in January.
We received 6 requests from you back in January which were responded to by Cheryl Cowart on 1/7/15. We do not have any record of your requests concerning the Houston Processing Center, the Bridgeport Pre-Parole Transfer Facility and the Lindsey State Jail.
I have forwarded these 3 requests to our contracts department and asked them to respond to you as soon as possible.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

Good afternoon, Mr. Lipton.
Pertaining to your request for contracts and memorandums of understanding entered into by TDCJ for services and activities related to the Houston Processing Center, we have no responsive information as this is not one of our facilities.
I googled the Houston Processing Center and it falls under the jurisdiction of the Office of the Chief Immigration Judge which is a component of the Executive Office for Immigration Review under the Department of Justice.
I hope this helps. Have a great afternoon.
