A Shakespearean MFOIA Question

Will I get the MFOIA documents or will I not get the MFOIA documents, that is the question!

Well technically, the answer is yes I will get the documents but the real question is which ones will I get and when?

The City is approaching its deadline for providing me with the information I have requested but I expect that they will seek an extension of time. Moreover, there is no doubt that with some of the documents I have requested, they will refuse to produce them. That means an appeal.

The likelihood of my request being fulfilled before the November municipal election is therefore very remote!

But then again, I may be totally wrong and be pleasantly surprised
