To Whom It May Concern:
I'm following up on the following California Public Records Act request, copied below, and originally submitted on May 21, 2018. You had previously indicated that it would be completed on June 30, 2018. I wanted to check on the status of my request, and to see if there was a new estimated completion date.
Thanks for your help, and let me know if further clarification is needed.

Good afternoon,
My apologies, I gave you the wrong information. I have heard back from all departments and have been told that the only form of communication used in our Adult Detention Facility is telephone. There are no kiosks or mobile tablet services so the contract previously provided is all that we have to give you.
Thank you,

Good afternoon,
We're still working on your request. Unfortunately, we are a small agency and it takes time to pull together the information you requested. There are a couple of documents I'm still trying to track down from other departments.
Thank you,

The communications contract already provided to you is the only thing we have to give you. The only way that inmates communicate with people outside the institution is via telephone and so the contract provided completes your request.
