Subject: Fw: Automatic reply: [CAUTION EXTERNAL] 12-24-20 PIR re: my DA's Office complaint vs. State Rep, Eddie Rodriguez

January 12, 2021

Dear Open Records Coordinator for the Travis County District Attorney's Office here in Austin,

Thank you for your December 24, 2020, reply letter (below) to me in regard to my December 24, 2020, public-information request.

My request: "I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all documents or records that refer to or comprise legal actions pursued by the Travis County District Attorney's Office in response to or in regard to my summer of 2020 Open Records complaint against the Democratic Party-affiliated Austinite State Representative Eddie Rodriguez --- a complaint that I had submitted in writing to your DA's Office."

Nearly three weeks have passed since you sent me your only reply letter so far in response to the above-cited December 24, 2020, public-information request.

Are you now able to provide me with an expected deadline by which you expect to be able to provide me with any and all legal documents responsive to that request from me?

Also, do you plan to ask permission from Attorney General Paxton to withhold from the general public one or more cited documents responsive to my December 24 PIR to your DA's Office?

Thank you in advance for your helpful reply letter to me on this.

Sincerely and Best Wishes,

John Kevin McMillan, public-information requestor.
My current solo-occupancy efficiency-rental-apartment-unit home address ever since June 21, 2019:
Pebble Creek Apartments (a Belco Equities-affiliated, large gated-community complex), 8805 North Plaza Drive, Building 17, Apt. 2418, Austin, TX 78753.

John Kevin McMillan

Please be aware that the processing and fulfillment of public records requests may be delayed due to the emergency workforce reductions and modified operations that have been adopted as part of the County’s response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Pursuant to guidelines issued by the Texas Attorney General’s Office, the allowable time period for responding to requests under the Public Information Act does not include any calendar days upon which a governmental body’s administrative offices are closed or operating with only a skeleton crew, or the governmental body’s records cannot be accessed because its staff is either working remotely or is directly involved in the public health or epidemic response. Please see the Attorney General’s website for more information:
