Petition for Public Records Order

When an individual is denied a request for public records from a state agency, that person may petition the Attorney General to issue a Public Records Order (PRO) by submitting this form to the Oregon Department of Justice. A petition may also be submitted to appeal the denial of a request for fee waiver or reduction, or when the state agency has failed to comply with its timeliness obligations.
