I’m requesting a document from a public office, and have been tied up in legal issues for a while now. Turns out, when one person talks to a lawyer who talks to another lawyer to get you an answer to a question, it can take upwards of a month. Because of legitimate legal reasons, they have concerns, but that doesn’t excuse the speed at which they’re proceeding. As a result, I’m going to start the process over again and ask for something lesser that might not be tied up as easily. It’s frustrating that I have to do this.
