P.R. Laws tit. 8, § 1135
The subject of the report shall be entitled to request the Department, in writing, that a copy of the information about his/her case found in the Central Register be provided to him/her. The Secretary, or the person designated by him/her, shall furnish such information insofar as this does not go against the best interests of the minor, and if the necessary steps have been taken to protect the confidentiality of the person who, in good faith, reported the case or cooperated during the investigation thereof.
If the information request is denied, the person affected by the Secretary’s decision may resort to the Court of Appeals within a period not to exceed thirty (30) days after the decision is notified.
As for referrals for which no grounds were found, the subject of the report may request in writing that his/her name be amended or deleted from the Register within thirty (30) days after being notified that grounds were not found. The Commonwealth Center for the Protection of Minors shall have thirty (30) days after receiving the request to act thereon. If the request is denied, or if the Center fails to act thereon, the subject of the report shall have thirty (30) days to file his/her petition for review with the Court of Appeals. This thirty (30)-days term shall begin on the date of notification by the Commonwealth Center for the Protection of Minors, or when the term expires for the Center to act on the petition to eliminate or amend made by the subject of the report.
