Hi Catherine,

This public records request was submitted to Brenda Gee at brenda.gee@ucsf.edu on March 6, 2024. We have since followed up and have not received acknowledgment this request was received.

Could you help confirm if this request is going to the right person?

Thank you so much.

From: University of California, San Francisco

Hello and good afternoon Michael Laidlaw:

This letter is to acknowledge your written request for documents regarding “Johana Olson” made pursuant to the California Public Records Act (CPRA), Government Code §7920 et seq., and dated March 6, 2024.

Request 024-034 is overly broad and cannot be processed as submitted. UCSF does not have a centralized search system that is capable of searching all users.

The University would like to assist you in making a focused and specific request that can be processed. One way to accomplish this would be to submit a request that seeks correspondence between specific individuals. May I please ask if you have a list of individuals?

When corresponding about this request, please reference PRA 024-034.

With my best wishes,

Brenda Gee
