Case Detail

FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Reggie Walton has ruled that affidavits submitted by the Director of the Office of National Intelligence are insufficient to show that two emails are protected by Exemption 5 (deliberative process privilege). The James Madison Project and journalist Ken Dilanian filed suit against the Justice Department, the Defense Department, the CIA, and ODNI after those agencies withheld records concerning Thomas Drake, a former National Security Agency employee accused of improperly disclosing classified information during the Obama administration. By the time Walton ruled on the case, the only issue remaining was whether two emails qualified for the deliberative process privilege. Walton found they did not. He noted that "the open and frank discussions and opinions [protected by the deliberative process privilege] must relate to the agency decisionmaking process, a process that neither the Director nor [the other agency affidavit] has identified." As to the first email, he pointed out that "the language in the e-mail responding to the e-mail containing the redacted language raises an inference that the withheld information was merely an update on the status of the Drake prosecution, and the Director's involvement in that matter is not clear from what has been submitted to the Court." Faulting the "vague description" of the second email, Walton observed that "the Court cannot discern the particular deliberative process involved, the role that the withheld information played in that deliberative process, or the nature of the decisionmaking authority vested in the e-mail participants. Without sufficient contextual detail, 'the Court is unable to assess, one way or the other, the [Director's] deliberative process privilege claim.'"
