Hi Whitney,

Thank you for your reply!

The request asked: “I’d like to know whether / if Dr. Claudia Coleman has been paid by Indigent Defense Services of NC over the last 10 years [since March 27, 2020], and if so can you please provide the total for how much Dr. Coleman has been paid by IDS [NC Indigent Defense Services] over the last 10 years?”

The “October” reference you see in the subject line, is only intended as an internal note we use to indicate the month / year a request was first published on our website. It has nothing to do with the content of the information that is actually being requested. Sorry for any confusion!

To clarify – The sender would like to request: “Please provide the total amount that Dr. Claudia Coleman has been paid by Indigent Defense Services of NC over the past 10 years [during the specific time period of March 27, 2010 – March 27, 2020].”

Thank you for your assistance!

Is the request for the total amount Dr. Coleman has been paid by IDS, if she has been paid by IDS, since October 2010?
