July 7 Documentary Notice to University of Michigan Vice President and General Counsel Timothy G. Lynch Concerning University and Law Enforcement Investigations Involving Drs. Bradley Foerster and Myria Petrou (2015–2026). July 8 UM Announces Lynch Leaving.
On July 7, 2026, Dr. Bradley Foerster transmitted a documentary notice to University of Michigan Vice President and General Counsel Timothy G. Lynch together with a 19-page documentary chronology documenting University investigations, law enforcement investigations, administrative proceedings, Freedom of Information Act litigation, federal agency records, and related matters involving Dr. Bradley Foerster and Dr. Myria Petrou from 2015 through 2026.
The notice preserves the existing documentary record by identifying the contemporaneous correspondence, investigative records, law enforcement records, court filings, Freedom of Information Act responses, and federal agency records supporting each section of the chronology. It expressly states that it does not seek reconsideration of prior University decisions or additional investigation, but instead memorializes the existing documentary record. The notice further advised that if any portion of the correspondence did not accurately reflect the University's position or the documentary record, written clarification would be appreciated; otherwise, no response was requested or required.
Dr. Foerster transmitted the documentary notice by email and UPS to Vice President and General Counsel Timothy G. Lynch and copied University President Domenico Grasso, the Board of Regents, Governor Gretchen Whitmer, and the additional recipients identified in the certificate of service. The attached chronology organizes sixty-three supporting exhibits into subject-matter sections documenting University investigations, law enforcement investigations, NIH grant administration, Regents' Bylaw 5.09 proceedings, federal debarment records, peer review, Freedom of Information Act proceedings, Office of General Counsel communications, and Russia-Gate-related records. As of July 19, 2026, no written clarification or other response to the documentary notice has been received.
The complete submission transmitted on July 7, 2026, including the documentary notice, documentary chronology, certificate of service, and all 63 supporting exhibits, is available as a single searchable PDF.
