We have received your request for:

 

"All documents held by your agency pertaining to an individual named Royal Russell Long, also known as Roy Long or Roy Lufkin, born on May 15, 1935.

Your request was made under the California Public Records Act (the Act). The Department is cognizant of its responsibilities under the Act. It recognizes the statutory scheme was enacted to maximize citizen access to the workings of government. The Act does not mandate disclosure of all documents within the government’s possession. Rather, by specific exemption and reference to other statutes, the Act recognizes that there are boundaries where the public’s right to access must be balanced against such weighty considerations as the right of privacy, a right of constitutional dimension under California Constitution, Article 1, Section 1. The law also exempts from disclosure records that are privileged or confidential or otherwise exempt under either express provisions of the Act or pursuant to applicable federal or state law, per California Government Code Sections 7927.200; 7927.700; 7923.600-7923.625; 7927.705; and 7922.000.

 

Regarding "all available records, correspondence, memos, notes,…and reports":

 

The Department has conducted a search based on the information provided and no responsive records were located.

 

Regarding "emails":

 

Please provide the names of the individuals whose correspondence you are requesting, domain if not @lapd.online, keywords, and a date range so that we may conduct a focused search.

 

Please be advised that we have extended this request for the statutory fourteen days, pursuant to California Government Code Section 7922.535, to provide you with the opportunity to respond. If you wish to proceed, we ask that you provide a response by August 28, 2024. If we do not receive a response by the date indicated, then we will consider this request closed.
