California Request for Records is a legal process in which a party can request an individual or public agency to produce records related to a particular subject. This process is governed by the California Public Records Act, which provides that any person can inspect and receive copies of public records upon request and payment of applicable fees. Requests typically include documents, files, photographs, emails, and other types of records. There are two main types of California Request for Records: 1. Standard Request for Records: A Standard Request for Records is a request for records that are already in the custody of a public agency. These requests are generally not subject to fees, and the public agency must produce the records within 10 calendar days. 2. Special Request for Records: A Special Request for Records is a request for records that are not already in the custody of a public agency. These requests are subject to fees, and the public agency must produce the records within 25 calendar days.
