To Whom It May Concern:

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

All lobbying noncompliance letters for failure to file disclosure and political contribution reports during filing years 2003-2015 sent to Greg Mitchell, and/or any of the following corporation names for Greg Mitchell's firm, in reference to House ID Number 36807000 and Senate ID Number 91650-12:

THE MITCHELL COMPANY
THE MITCHELL FIRM, LLC
THE MITCHELL FIRM, INC.

I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest due to the majority of Mr. Mitchell's reported income for his lobbying being derived from a single client (Church of Scientology International) and the numerous controversies surrounding that organization's tax exempt status. See: http://influenceexplorer.com/organization/mitchell-firm/af4d02dd6d4c4e469e6ce85194b0e5f7#lobbying_section

Additionally, 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 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Ms. R. M. Seibert
