Honorable Chancery Clerk Tillmon Bishop

Office of the Lincoln County Chancery Clerk

301 S First Street Rm 111

Brookhaven, MS  39601

 

Honorable Chancery Clerk Bishop:

 

Under the Mississippi Public Records Act § 25-61-1 et seq., I am requesting an opportunity to inspect or obtain copies of public records that involve grant applications.  I would like a copy of page 1 of every grant application Lincoln County, or any Lincoln County Department, has filed on its behalf over the past 365 days.

 

If there are any fees for searching or copying these records, please inform me if the cost will exceed $200.  The law requires that you respond to this request within between one and 14 days, depending upon your department’s established policy.  If you expect a significant delay in responding to this request, please contact me with information about when I might expect copies or the ability to inspect the requested records.

 

If you deny any or all of this request, please cite each specific exemption you feel justifies the refusal to release the information and notify me of the appeal procedures available to me under the law.

 

Thank you for considering my request.

 

Sincerely,

Robert T. Oliveira
