To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the New York Freedom of Information Law, I hereby request the following records:
Subject: Freedom of Information Act Request
Dear Freedom of Information Officer,
I am writing to request information under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), [5 U.S.C. § 552] regarding inmates currently held in solitary confinement within the state of New York or in federal correctional facilities.
Please provide the following information for each inmate:
1. The total number of inmates held in solitary confinement.
2. The name of the facility where each inmate is held.
3. The duration for which each inmate has been in solitary confinement.
4. The reasons provided for placing each inmate in solitary confinement.
If some of this information is available in an aggregated or anonymized format, I would accept that format to protect privacy and security while still providing oversight of the use of solitary confinement.
I am willing to pay fees for this request up to a maximum of $1000. Please inform me if the estimated fees will exceed this limit before processing my request.
Additionally, I request a waiver of all fees for this request. Disclosure of the requested information is in the public interest because it provides significant insight into governmental operations and activities specifically related to the treatment of inmates in the state of New York and federal correctional facilities. This information is not being sought for commercial purposes.
I look forward to your response within the statutory 20 working day period as outlined in the FOIA.
Thank you for considering my request.
Sincerely,
Trevor Davis
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 5 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Trevor Davis
