RE: FOIA REQUEST of July 31, 2024, Reference # R010871-073124

Dear Jedidiah:

This letter is in response to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request referenced above.  Your request mentioned:
"Please see attached correspondence; I am requesting all loss run reports for Calhoun County for
2019, 2020, 2021, 2022
Loss run reports are the payouts for insurance (regardless if they were paid, all claims must be shown)"
Your request is denied for failure to comply with MCL 15.233.
Notice of Requestor's Right to Seek Judicial Review:
You are entitled under Section 10 of the Michigan Freedom of Information Act, MCL 15.240, to appeal this denial to the County Board of Commissioners or to commence an action in the Circuit Court to compel disclosure of the requested records if you believe they were wrongfully withheld from disclosure. If, after judicial review, the Court determines that the County has not complied with MCL 15.235 in making this denial and orders disclosure of all or a portion of a public record, you have the right to receive attorneys' fees and damages as provided in MCL 15.240. (See attached additional information on your rights.)
YOUR FURTHER LEGAL RIGHTS:
To the extent that this response, in your opinion, constitutes a denial of your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) rights, your statutory remedies are as follows:
For FOIA denials, you may submit to the head of the public body a written appeal that specifically states the word "appeal" and identifies the reason or reasons for reversal of the denial. Within 10 business days after the head of the public body receives a written appeal he or she will do one of the following:
1. Reverse the denial.
2. Issue a written notice to you upholding the denial.
3. Reverse the denial in part and issue a written notice to you upholding the denial in part.
4. Under unusual circumstances, issue a notice extending for not more than 10 business days the time to respond.
You may begin a civil action in circuit court to compel the public body's disclosure of the public records within 180 days after a public body's final determination to deny a request.

You have the right to receive attorneys' fees and damages as provided in MCL 15.240 if, after judicial review, the court determines that the public body has not complied with MCL 15.235 and orders disclosure of all or a portion of a public record.
For fee appeals, if the public body requires a fee that, in your opinion, exceeds the amount permitted under its procedures and guidelines or MCL 15.234, you may submit to the head of the public body a written fee appeal for a fee reduction that specifically states the word "appeal" and identifies how the required fee exceeds the amount permitted. Within 10 business days after the head of the public body receives a written fee appeal, he or she will do one of the following:
1. Waive the fee.
2. Reduce the fee and issue a written determination to the requesting person indicating the basis for the remaining fee.
3. Uphold the fee and issue a written determination to the requesting person indicating the basis for upholding the fee.
4. If necessary, issue a notice extending for not more than 10 business days the time to respond.
Within 45 days after the head of the public body issues a written determination on the fee appeal or if the head of the public body failed to respond to the fee appeal, you may begin a civil action in circuit court.
