as mentioned several times, this report was due on mar 2, 2019, which was a saturday. it is now mar 7, 2019.
i briefly spoke to kirsten on the phone today around 14:00 and was informed that the windsor police had requested a time extension. this request was neither communicated to me by the department nor by the oiprd. i consequently made a request that this be communicated to me in writing, and was told that it would only be done so once the director approved or denied the request.
i did not see the use of arguing with kirsten on the phone.
but, what does it mean for the director to approve or deny such a request? the report is already five days past a statutory deadline. if the extension is denied, a report does not magically appear; if it is granted, it is simply a gloss over a failure to meet the appropriate deadline. this is an absurdity.
i reminded the police of the deadline several times, so i cannot be accused of failing to perform due diligence.
the important information that i learned from the brief call is the following:
1) no report exists.
2) the oiprd denied my request to document the fact that no such a report exists.
i am rather baffled by this.
i will consequently be treating the situation as though the report was issued on the 1st, and will be filing with the superior court no later than the 29th of march, unless a report appears on or before that date.
