Lane von Herzen: Update on FOIA Requests

My Third Novel's Conclusion, My Heartbreak

My heart begins to break when I think about completing this particular book -- because this narrative has sustained me like no other story I've known. It's both more personal and more universal than my other works. But beyond memory and archetype, it's a cri-de-coeur about needing to become the person one is destined to be. And in the writing, I have met my own life's work, my own fated journey -- having the sense all the while that the pages are suffused with a resonance, an energy, an electrified field that defies explanation. Writers hope and pray to be overtaken by a work in this way -- to be conscripted into passionate service of a profound story. To experience it even once in a lifetime seems a great privilege. I still have several months before this novel is complete, and this constitutes my reprieve. Because I'm not ready for the beauty to end.

Update on FOIA Requests

OIG Hotline, it is 3:17 PM in the afternoon on Tuesday, September 17, 2024.

I am awaiting provision of FOIA reports and investigative reports today, in the hope that I was granted injunctive relief yesterday, September 16, 2024, with a Court Order that I be provided with all reports right away.

I will be following up here on my blog and within my email to verify whether I am in receipt of reports which the Honorable Justice may have ordered to be conveyed into my possession on an immediate basis.

Thank you for allowing me to extend this documentation to your Office.

On the chance that my requests for injunctive relief were granted, and reports do not arrive, at least this documentation allows your Office the opportunity to seek their immediate provision in further communications with the Honorable Justice without delay.

Most sincerely,
