Is Sheriff Hutchens just marking time until March 2009?

Documents released to OCCCWS as the result of a Public Records Act (PRA) request show that Sheriff Hutchens’ plan to “expire” the CCW Permits early has not been “on hold pending review” as she indicated to the Board of Supervisors, so much as simply waiting for the Department of Justice to finish software modifications to their system to allow this to be done.
As early as December 9th, the Department of Justice informed OCSD that it would take until March 2009 to make the required changes.
Scans of the emails between the California Department of Justice and Orange County Assistant Sheriff Jack Anderson are provided below.
Note that some of these images have had the names of private citizens or non-command-level employees of the Sheriff’s Department redacted to protect privacy.
