From:

We are in receipt of your CCJRA (Colorado Criminal Justice Records Act) request. In order to consider your request, you must complete the attached form. We have the following responses and questions to your request at this time.

1. As the Sheriff's form requires, you must sign the attestation attesting that your use of the information is not for pecuniary gain. This requirement and limitation is codified in C.R.S. 24-72-305.5. We understand that Muckrock is not the actual party requesting the information but the information is for some other person or entity who pays Muckrock for its services in seeking this information for them. In either event, it appears Muckrock is doing this for pecuniary gain. Also, if the information is intended for another person's use, it would appear that that person/entity would also need to sign the attestation. Please clarify these facts and why the information is being requested so we can determine if your and your requesting party request meets the requirements of C.R.S. 24-72-305.5. Please also explain how your and/or your requesting party's request does not violate C.R.S. 24-72-305.5. We note that a violation by you or your requestor of this statute, is a crime subject to $1,000 fine.

2. We request some clarification. “Communication services” could include an enormous number of contracts and invoices. Can you narrow down the search for us? Also there will be a charge for this. Once you provide clarification on the request we will be able to determine if and how we can respond and how much time it will take to generate your response and determine the amount of the charge. We are also considering the other requests and charge for those.

3. Gilpin County Sheriff will not waive fees or costs.

4. Any fees and costs for time and materials will need to be paid in advance of any work on this by the Gilpin County Sheriff's Office.

Thank you!
