Section 5.51 - Investigation

(a) If the completeness or accuracy of any item of information is disputed by an inmate, the custodian of the record shall, within a reasonable period of time, investigate the accuracy and completeness of the information unless he has reasonable grounds to believe that the dispute by the inmate is frivolous. If the record in dispute is one which has been received from another governmental agency, then the custodian shall direct the inmate to make his challenge to such governmental agency.

(b) If the custodian, after investigation, shall determine the disputed information is erroneous or incomplete, he shall make such changes as are necessary and shall report to the inmate the results of the investigation and the changes, if any, which have been made no later than 45 days after the custodian or the custodian's designee has been advised of the dispute.
