Your full name, email address, and what information you are requesting is required. The form will also ask you for how you'd like to receive your requested information (e.x. inspecting the records or receiving copies) and some details about your request.

Just as it says on the Pennsylvania Office of Open Records How to File an Appeal web page:

To file an appeal under the Right-to-Know law, a citizen must provide the following:

• A copy of the RTK request
• A copy of the Agency’s response (or a written statement that the request was deemed denied meaning the Agency didn’t respond at all).
• State the grounds they assert this is a public record
• Address any ground stated by the agency

You must provide this within 15 business days from the date that the Agency [Upper Darby Township] mailed to you a denial letter or the date that the request was “deemed denied.” When an agency does not respond to you in writing with five business days of your written RTK request that request is “deemed denied.” If an agency did not respond, please indicate this in writing.

You must provide the required information no later than the 15th business day or your appeal will be untimely under the law and therefore cannot be processed. If that time frame has expired, or will expire, before you provide to us the required information, you will have to file another RTK request with the Agency.

When we receive your completed file, we will assign a docket number, send you a an acknowledgment letter and assign an Appeals Officer to process your appeal.

Appeals should be sent to the Office of Open Records, Commonwealth Keystone Building, 400 North St., 4th Floor, Harrisburg, PA 17120-0225. They may also be submitted via facsimile to 717-425-5343 or via email.
