All emails from the county or personal email accounts of Robert Quigley (a county spokesman), Lisa Cupid or Bob Ott (both county commissioners) that have been sent to or received from Dan Klepal (an AJC reporter), anyone at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Tom Cheek, or Susan McCoy (two citizen activists) from September 1, 2013 to the present.
2. All emails from the county or personal email accounts of Robert Quigley, Lisa Cupid, or Bob Ott that have been sent to or received from any other individual from May 1, 2014 to the present regarding: (a) the Atlanta Braves stadium/development, (b) the pending ethics complaint by Tom Cheek against Tim Lee (or any of the allegations in the complaint), (c) any of the prior ethics complaints filed against Tim Lee (or any of the allegations raised in the complaint), (d) Dan McRae or the law firm of Seyfarth Shaw, or (e) the lawsuit by Fairly Breezy LLC, and filed by attorney Doug Haynie of the law firm Haynie, Litchfield, Crane & White, LLP, against Cobb County.
I request that copies of all responsive documents be produced to me within three business days of this request. If all such documents are not available within that time period, then please provide a description of the remaining documents and a timeline for when they will be available. I also request that if all or part of a requested record is withheld from production, you notify me of the specific legal authority exempting the request record or records by reference to code section, subsection, and paragraph.
I understand that there may be costs associated with responding to this request. This letter confirms that I am willing to pay such reasonable costs that are actually incurred up to $500. If the estimated costs of production exceed $500, please notify me in advance.
Please contact me if you have any further questions or comments.
Sincerely,
Scott Woodall
