NOTE: The option to appeal a proposed resolution rests with the offender. All ADA request denials indicating a desire for appeal
will be forwarded to the next level. However, to allow a full review of all issues the offender wishes considered, he or she should
state these reasons clearly in the appeal. Statements such as "not satisfied" or "appeal further" will result only in a general review.
This appeal form, along with supporting documents, must be submitted to the Commissioner’s Designee at P.O. Box 1529, Forsyth,
Georgia 31029 within seven (7) days of receipt of the Warden’s/Superintendent’s response.
