You submitted a public records request in an email received on 6-12-24, 2024 to the Ohio Department of Public Safety (DPS).

This request is overly broad. Ohio law provides that a requester has a duty to identify the records sought with sufficient clarity. State ex rel. Morgan v. New Lexington, 112 Ohio St.3d 33, 2006 Ohio 6365, ¶ 29. Please note that your request does not satisfy the requirements of Ohio public records law that a request must be specific and particularly describe what is being sought from the public office. State ex rel. Zauderer v. Joseph (1989), 62 Ohio App.3d 752, at 756. This request also constitutes a complete duplication of records and Ohio public records cases have established that public records requests must be more narrowly tailored rather than a blanket request for all documents of a certain type. State ex rel. Bristow v. Baxter, 2018-Ohio-1973, ¶ 9-13; See State ex rel. Glasgow v. Jones, 119 Ohio St.3d 391, 2008-Ohio-4788, ¶ 19.

Please contact me with any questions and should you want to clarify or narrow your public records request. Furthermore, you may want to review DPS records retention schedules which can be found at https://rims.das.ohio.gov/GeneralSchedule which may assist you in your request.
