Re: Right to Know Request 2021102601

Dear Diyari:

Thank you for writing to Montgomery County Community College

(“MCCC”) with your request for information pursuant to the

Pennsylvania Right-to-Know Law, 65 P.S. 67.101, et. seq.

On October 26, 2021, you requested the following records:

1: All contracts and/or agreements with Condensed Curriculum

International, Inc. (CCI)

2: All invoices YOU received from CCI.

3: DOCUMENTS sufficient to show all payments made to and/or

8: All invoices received from MY ED TODAY.

9: DOCUMENTS sufficient to show all payments made to and/or

received by MY ED TODAY from September 15, 2013 to March

6, 2020.

10: All contracts and/or agreements between YOU and EDU2.COM.

11: All invoices received from EDU2.COM.

12: DOCUMENTS sufficient to show all payments made to and/or

received by EDU2.COM from September 15, 2013 to March 6, 2020.

13: All YOUR COMMUNICATIONS with Ryan Williams that REFER OR

RELATE TO the sale and/or purchase of CCI’s SERVICES.

14: All YOUR COMMUNICATIONS with any person at CCI that REFER OR

RELATE TO the sale and/or purchase of CCI’s SERVICES.

The request for records responsive to requests 1-3 is

granted. The documents are enclosed.

The request for records responsive to requests 4 - 12 is

denied. Your request is denied for the following reasons, as

permitted by Section 708 of the Right-to-Know Law:

* It is well-established that an agency (as defined in the RTKL)

cannot provide a record that is not in its possession. See

Sanders v. Penn. Bd. of Probation and Parole, No. AP 2009-0069,

*2 (Pa. Off. Open Rec. Mar. 13, 2009) (citing 65 P.S. § 67.305).

Similarly, an agency cannot provide a record that does not

exist. See Hayes v. Penna. Dept. of Corr., No. AP 2013-0946 (Pa.

Off. Open Rec. Jun. 18, 2013). The College does not possess any

records responsive to these requests, nor do such records exist.

Accordingly, these requests are denied.

The request for records of related to requests 13 and 14 is

denied. Your request is denied for the following reasons, as

permitted by Section 708 of the Right-to-Know Law:

* The RTKL requires that requests for records sufficiently and

specifically identify the records sought. RTKL §703. To that

end, the courts have established a three-part test to determine

if the request meets that specificity requirement. See

Pa. Dep’t of Education v. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, 119 A.3d 1121,

1124 (Pa. Cmwlth. Ct. 2015). The request must identify (1) the

subject matter (2) the scope, either by recipient or by type; and

(3) the timeframe for which records are sought. Id. at

1124-1125. Moreover, as an aspect of the above specificity test

“[t]he subject matter of the request must identify the

‘transaction or activity’ of the agency for which the record is

sought. Pa. Dep’t of Educ., 119 A.3d at 1125.

* With that in mind, your generic request for “communications” is

too broad and encompasses too many different types of records.

See, e.g., Francis Catania v. Chester Upland School District, OOR

No. AP 2020-0538. These generic requests for

“correspondence” is therefore denied. These requests also do not

sufficiently specify the records you are seeking which is

required pursuant to RTKL §703.

Because your request has been denied in part, you are advised of

your right to appeal this decision to the Office of Open Records

(OOR). Any such appeal must be in writing and submitted to the

OOR within fifteen (15) business days of the date of this letter.

It also must include the legal basis for your belief that you

were improperly denied records and address each basis for denial

proffered by the College. The OOR’s address is: Commonwealth

Keystone Building, 400 North Street, 4th Floor, Harrisburg, PA

17120-0225.

Please be advised that this correspondence will serve to close

this record with our office as permitted by law.
