Open FOIL NY Request From : Gunnar Larson : NY-DFS Superintendent Adrienne Harris Recusal Records

[Gunnar Larson]

Dear Siaka Paasewe:

Thank you for NY-DHR's February 2, 2024 response concerning potential
NY-DFS Superintendent recusal records mentioned by New York Magazine (
https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/03/adrienne-harris-is
<https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/03/adrienne-harris-is->-cryptos-most-powerful-regulator.html)
in an interview titled "Crypto’s Most Powerful Regulator Is Here Adrienne
Harris, New York’s financial watchdog, has enormous sway over the
industry’s future."

Today xNY.io - Bank.org elects to appeal NY-DHR's February 2, 2024
response. We aim understand if DHR is suggesting no New York State records
are available concerning this matter. Or, if DHR has redacted in part or
withheld records in entirety marked as privileged.

Have a nice day.

Thank you,

Gunnar
