DATE: October 25, 2026
TO: Sevil N. Barber, FOIL Officer, Office of Court Administration
FOIL@nycourts.gov
Agency Building 4, Empire State Plaza, Suite 2001, Albany, NY 12223

SFC-Part35@nycourts.gov

FROM: JaneDoe1, Editorial Administrator, LucyCraig.blog
RE: DeleteMe / JoinDeleteMe / Abine, Inc. - contracts, procurement, public expenditures, official communications,
and records concerning the scope of services for judicial officials
Dear Records Access Officer:
LucyCraig.blog requests access under the New York Freedom of Information Law (Public Officers Law §§
84-90) and 22 NYCRR Part 124 to the administrative records maintained by the Office of Court Administration
(OCA) described below. We understand that FOIL does not compel the disclosure of court records or a judge's
exclusively private records, and that OCA need not create documents or answer questions that are not
reflected in existing agency records.
The request concerns DeleteMe, JoinDeleteMe, Abine, Inc., and other entities to the extent identifiable in
existing OCA records as providing DeleteMe-branded or equivalent services through those entities. The
focused individual of interest is Hon. Phaedra F. Perry-Bond (including the name Phaedra F. Perry).
References to other judges are confined to OCA-maintained programs, expenditures, or procurement
records.
Investigation context: On October 22, 2026, the publication described an apparent DeleteMe-related
content-removal demand concerning commentary about Justice Perry-Bond. The report is at
https://lucycraig.blog/article/dear-judge-perry-bond-that-s-not-how-the-first-amendment-works . We seek
records to establish facts, not to presume the source, authority, funding, scope, or lawfulness of any service
or request.
1. Contracts, procurement, and program records
All existing OCA contracts, subscription agreements, purchase orders, statements of work, amendments,
invoices, procurement approvals, vendor evaluations, solicitations and procurement records concerning
DeleteMe, JoinDeleteMe or Abine, Inc., whether procured for OCA, court employees, judges, or a judicial
security/privacy program. Include any agreement for group accounts, subsidized employee benefits, or
vendor referrals administered or funded by OCA.
2. Records identifying recipients or beneficiaries
Nonexempt administrative records reflecting whether Justice Perry-Bond was named, designated, enrolled,
approved, reimbursed, or otherwise listed as a user or beneficiary of the above services, including through a
central procurement or court-funded benefit. For wider programs, records sufficient to identify the approving
unit, eligibility criteria, expenditures, and general scope of services; sensitive security details may be
redacted.

3. Funding and privately financed arrangements involving official resources
Administrative records showing who paid for relevant services, including agency purchase or payment
records, reimbursements, expense reports, outside funding, cost-sharing arrangements, or instances where
a privately paid subscription was authorized, coordinated, administered, processed, or supported using OCA
personnel, procurement systems, or other official resources. We do not seek personal banking or
payment-card information.
4. Scope of service: personal privacy versus professional reputation
Existing contracts, service descriptions, onboarding materials, statements of work, vendor proposals,
policies, authorizations, or correspondence in OCA's administrative custody describing whether the services
encompass (a) removal of home addresses, family information, or information-broker entries; (b)
search-engine delisting; (c) requests about reporting on judicial rulings, opinions, proceedings, or
professional conduct; (d) reputation-management or public-relations activity; or (e) complaints or demands
to remove critical commentary concerning a judge's official work. This item requests documents reflecting
the scope, not a newly created explanation.
5. Communications and content-removal requests
Nonexempt OCA administrative correspondence, including emails, attachments, referrals, memoranda,
instructions, and vendor submissions, concerning DeleteMe, Justice Perry-Bond, judicial reputation or
security services, LucyCraig.blog, the domain lucycraig.blog, or requests to remove, modify, deindex, or
restrict publication of material about the judicial work of Justice Perry-Bond. Include records discussing
whether a proposed request was for a private safety concern, a professional reputation concern, or both.
6. Public-resource participation and oversight
Policies, directives, approvals, and records of internal administrative review concerning use of court email
accounts, staff time, state equipment, official titles, official stationery, public funds, or referral channels in
assisting commercial information-removal services. Include existing administrative records of any applicable
conflict-of-interest or authority review, but not confidential ethics proceedings or protected judicial
deliberations.
7. Time period and search scope
For contracts, procurement, payment, and policies: January 1, 2020 through October 25, 2026. For
communications specifically referring to Justice Perry-Bond, LucyCraig.blog, the cited publication, or
content-removal requests: January 1, 2025 through October 25, 2026. Search OCA offices reasonably likely
to maintain procurement, finance, legal administration, technology contracting, and vendor-management
records. The search terms should include "Phaedra Perry-Bond," "Phaedra Perry," "DeleteMe,"
"JoinDeleteMe," "Abine," and "lucycraig.blog," as appropriate.
8. Production, redactions, and response
Please produce responsive records electronically, in existing native format where practicable, or as
searchable PDFs. If a record is withheld or redacted, identify the legal basis and release reasonably
segregable portions. We specifically exclude judges' home addresses, private phone numbers, private family
details, security vulnerabilities, credentials, and full account or card numbers. Where requested records are
not maintained or cannot be located after diligent search, provide the certification contemplated by 22
NYCRR § 124.6(c).
Under 22 NYCRR § 124.6(a), please approve, deny, or acknowledge this request with an approximate
determination date within five business days. Advise us before charges exceed $25. If another office
maintains responsive administrative records, please identify that office where known.
Respectfully,
JaneDoe1 | Editorial Administrator, LucyCraig.blog

NOT A FOIL DEMAND | NON-CASE-RELATED QUESTIONS FOR JOURNALISTIC ACCURACY
Supplemental Voluntary Inquiry to Chambers
DATE: October 25, 2026
TO: Hon. Phaedra F. Perry-Bond, Supreme Court, New York County, IAS Part 35
Via published Part 35 office: SFC-Part35@nycourts.gov
60 Centre Street, Chambers Room 570, New York, NY 10007
CC: Sevil N. Barber, FOIL Officer, Office of Court Administration - FOIL@nycourts.gov
RE: Request for voluntary factual clarification regarding any DeleteMe-related service or communication
Dear Justice Perry-Bond:
LucyCraig.blog is examining whether commercial online-information-removal services have been retained or
used for New York State judicial officials and, in particular, whether any such service extends beyond
personal privacy and security to address professional reputation, judicial acts, or reporting about official
conduct. We invite a voluntary factual response to ensure accurate reporting and to provide an opportunity
to clarify the record.
These questions do not concern the merits of any case, do not seek a judicial ruling, and do not request
privileged information, confidential proceedings, or private security details. If another administrative office or
authorized spokesperson handles such matters, we welcome a referral.
1. Have you, an authorized representative, or any court-administered program obtained or used DeleteMe,
JoinDeleteMe, Abine, Inc. or a related service in connection with information published about you? If so, was
the service personally paid, publicly funded, reimbursed, subsidized, or otherwise sponsored by a third
party?
2. If private funds paid for any service, did its agreed scope extend to online professional reputation
management, including criticism of judicial rulings or decisions, reporting about court proceedings,
discussion of judicial conduct, or the appearance of search results concerning your public duties?
3. Was any vendor or representative authorized to request removal, delisting, or modification of an article
about your professional conduct or judicial work, distinct from a request narrowly targeting private home
addresses, family details, threats, or other safety-sensitive information?
4. Did any court officer, employee, or public resource participate in establishing, administering, paying for, or
communicating with the provider on such requests, and was any administrative approval obtained?
5. Did you personally authorize, review, or become aware of any communication described by LucyCraig.blog
in its October 22, 2026 article as a DeleteMe-related demand? If this description is inaccurate, please identify
the inaccuracy without commenting on any pending case.
6. If services were limited strictly to personal privacy and physical security, would you confirm that
distinction for the record?
Relevant publication: LucyCraig.blog editorial of October 22, 2026.
A response is voluntary. We respect legitimate personal-safety protections and will consider corrections or
clarification. Exclusively private contracts are not ordinarily available through OCA FOIL.
Respectfully,
JaneDoe1 | Editorial Administrator, LucyCraig.blog
