5 statement that the other party, after conducting a diligent search, does not possess or control
6 any of the requested records. The other party shall cooperate with the receiving party with

9 must deliver the record or data to the receiving party and assert the exemption by citation to
10 specific legal authority within the written statement that it provides to the receiving party under
11 this section. The other party's assertion of any exemption from disclosure is not binding on the
12 receiving party, but the receiving party will give at least 10 days' advance written notice to the
13 other party before disclosing any record subject to the other party's assertion of exemption from
14 disclosure. The other party shall indemnify the receiving party for any court-ordered award of
15 costs or attorney's fees under the CPRA that results from the other party's delay, claim of
16 exemption, failure to produce any such records, or failure to cooperate with the receiving party
17 with respect to any demand for any such records.
