I am unclear about why you continue to send these automated messages since I believe this request was filled last year. In addition, the email you use is confusing since we receive numerous requests from muckrock.com with these multi-digit sender addresses.

Hello,

I have not received the documents yet for this request dated 2/28/2017 so the MuckRock system continues to send these automated reminders. Can you please resend the documents?

Thanks!

Hello Mr. Gordon,

I don't believe we ever received these materials, though we did receive a similar subset in relation to another request for one particular week of 2016 protests. Could you please clarify where this request stands or help us move the processing along?

Thanks so much for your help. I hope the year is off to a good start.

Hello Melissa,

I have received this request, but I do not have data on this request as this data request was before my time in my current position. It appears this data request was fulfilled by Bruce Gordon, director of communications.

Thanks,

Gordon
