Case DescriptionPublic Citizen submitted a FOIA request to the Department of Housing and Urban Development for records concerning the eligibility of individuals in the deferred action for childhood arrival program to obtain Federal Housing Administration loans and the acceptability of C33 employment authorization documents to establish borrower eligibility. Public Citizen also requested a fee waiver. The agency acknowledged receipt of the request and sent a form letter denying Public Citizen's fee waiver request. Public Citizen filed an administrative appeal challenging the agency's denial of its request for a fee waiver. HUD denied Public Citizen's administrative appeal. Public Citizen then filed suit.

Opinion/Order [34]
FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Carl Nichols has ruled that neither Public Citizen nor the Department of Housing and Urban Development have provided enough evidence for him to assess whether or not the department has a policy or practice of redacting portions of records because they are non-responsive. In response to Public Citizen's request for records concerning HUD's decision to deny Federal Housing Administration loans to DACA recipients, the agency disclosed records with redactions made under Exemption 5 (privileges) and Exemption 6 (invasion of privacy), as well as redactions labeled as non-responsive. Based on the D.C. Circuit's decision in American Immigration Lawyers Association v. Executive Office for Immigration Review, 830 F.3d 667 (D.C. Cir. 2016), holding that agencies could only withhold records based on exemption claims, Public Citizen filed suit, alleging the practice violated FOIA. In AILA, the D.C. Circuit also suggested that to address the issue of non-responsiveness, agencies could consider dividing records into smaller portions to separate non-responsive portions from responsive portions. Nichols relied on Shapiro v. CIA, 247 F. Supp. 3d 53 (D.D.C. 2017), in which the district court found that it was "possible for a court both to pronounce general guidance on how to define the term 'record' and to be unable to make concrete determinations about specific redactions." Applying Shapiro v. CIA, Nichols noted that "the Court has before it no Vaughn index, no comprehensive list of challenged redactions, and no government affidavits explaining the rationale for considering all of HUD's specific redactions as records separate and distinct from the produced materials." Nichols pointed out that he did not believe "it makes sense to rule on some challenged redactions and then to have to revisit the topic in the context of additional documents." As a result, Nichols indicated that he would wait until HUD had finished reviewing the rest of the records, made its redaction claims and supported them with a Vaughn index. After that, Public Citizen would be given an opportunity to challenge the agency's claims. Nichols indicated that HUD's claim that AILA's comments expressing skepticism that individual emails within email chains could not be considered individual records as dicta. Instead, Nichols observed that "while the Court can theoretically imagine a situation in which a single bullet point from a PowerPoint slide or a single email in a chain (or subdivision thereof) might be considered a separate record, it is skeptical that the government will be able to justify that step outside extraordinary circumstances."
