Case Detail

FOIA Project Annotation: A federal court in New York has ruled that the Department of State must expedite the processing of the Brennan Center's FOIA request for six documents concerning President Trump's travel ban within a month. After the Trump administration issued its second travel ban, the Brennan Center sent a multi-part request to the State Department, which granted its request for expedited processing. Although the request was referred to the Department of Homeland Security as well, only six identified documents were currently at issue. After the agency had not responded in six months, the Brennan Center filed suit to force the agency to expedite its request, asking the court to order the agency to disclose the records within 21 days and provide a Vaughn index as well. The agency argued the Brennan Center's timeline was not practicable because parts of its request had been referred to DHS, the records pertained to national security, and there was no legal obligation for the agency to provide a Vaughn index before it submitted its summary judgment motion. The court pointed out that "it has now been nearly six months since Plaintiff's FOIA request was submitted, and nothing has been produced. Nor is there any schedule for production. Accordingly, the presumption of agency delay applies." Turning to the State Department's claims, the court noted that "as an initial matter, Defendant cannot evade responsibility for failing to produce the requested records by referring the request to DHS or other Executive Branch components for review." The court pointed out that "moreover, Defendant's claim that Plaintiff's request is 'broad and complex' and 'burdensome' in light of the State Department's backlog of FOIA requests is not supported by the records. Although Defendant argues that Plaintiff's FOIA request contains twenty-three sub-parts, Defendant has conceded that Plaintiff is seeking 'only a subset of [these] records in this litigation' and that only 'six documents' are actually in dispute. . .Accordingly, Defendant has not demonstrated that production of the non-exempt portions of the six documents at issue â€" with an explanation as to which exemptions apply to material that is withheld â€" would be overly burdensome." On the issue of a Vaughn index, the court observed that "while 'a Vaughn Index is not. . .required. . . "where it is not [necessary] to restore the traditional adversary process" â€" because the 'requestor has acquired sufficient facts to permit the adversary process to function' â€" here the State Department has provided no information regarding the exemptions it plans to claim." The court concluded that "because (1) Plaintiff has demonstrated that its FOIA request merits expedited treatment, and (2) Defendant has not rebutted the presumption of agency delay, Plaintiff's motion to expedite will be granted." The court ordered the agency to produce non-exempt records and a Vaughn index by Feb. 3.
