Good afternoon, Mr. Lipton.

I am responding to your request dated 12/03/14 which you submitted to Karen Hall via email.

You requested specific "Death in Custody Reporting" forms. These forms are not maintained by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. We think these forms are federal forms.

Have a great rest of the day.
