This table shows the maximum number of working days agencies can take to provide public records in those 35 states that give a statutory deadline or where one has been established by courts. Half the states allow no more than 5 working days.
Former Oregon AG Hardy Myers and Deputy Pete Shepherd often gave agencies 40 days. I am hoping our new AG John Kroger will quickly change this.
