What the Mississippi Public Records Act Requires
Under the Mississippi Public Records Act the agency must answer a request within 7 working days, or up to 14 where local rules allow, and it may charge the actual cost of search, review and copying. The request goes to the agency that holds the report, in writing, and does not have to say why the report is wanted.
