The Complainant alleged that the Corporation violated the APRA when it denied his request for detainee records. This Office found that the Corporation violated the APRA when its denial failed to state that no portion of the responsive documents or records was reasonably segregable. See R.I. Gen. Laws § 38-2-3(b). We determined that it was unclear what documents were encompassed by the Complainant's initial, broad APRA request, but that statements made by the Complainant to this Office seemingly clarified the information he was seeking. Accordingly, we directed the Corporation to respond to the clarified request in accordance with the APRA and noted that the Complainant is also free to submit a new request to the Corporation for additional records. We will hold this file open pending a supplemental submission from the parties. VIOLATION FOUND
