Requestors may also fax the form to the attention of the NJSBA Custodian of Records at 609-695-1577.

If your properly filed request for access to a government record has not received a response within seven business days, or fourteen business days if the request is a “commercial request” as set forth in N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq., you have a right to appeal the decision by NJSBA to deny access. At your option, you may either institute a proceeding in the Superior Court of New Jersey or file a complaint with the Government Records Council (“GRC”) by completing the Denial of Access Complaint Form. You may contact the GRC by toll-free telephone at 866-850-0511, by mail at P.O. Box 819, Trenton, NJ, 08625, by e-mail at grc@dca.state.nj.us, or at their web site at www.state.nj.us/grc. The Council can also answer other questions about the law.  All questions regarding complaints filed in Superior Court should be directed to the Court Clerk in your County.
