In 98-ORD-167, the decision discussed the requirements for an agency's response to an open records request, specifically addressing the method of communication. It was determined that absent an agreement by the requester to accept an electronic response, the agency must provide a standard written response. This precedent is cited in the current decision to highlight the procedural requirements and the acceptability of electronic communications in handling open records requests, comparing it to the current case where there was ambiguity in the communication method.
