| 2019-02-08 | 21 | MINUTES OF Telephonic Conference Re Discovery Hearing held before Magistrate Judge Patrick J. Walsh. The case is called and appearances are made. The issue before the Court is whether Plaintiff is entitled to take discovery in this FOIA action before Defendant files its motion for summary judgment. As a general rule, discovery is not permitted in FOIA cases. See Lane v. Dep't of Interior, 523 F.3d 1128, 1134 (9th Cir. 2008); Lawyers' Comm. for Civil Rights of S.F. Bay Area v. United States Dep't of the Treasury, 534 F. Supp. 2d 1126, 1131 (N.D. Cal. 2008) (noting district courts typically decide FOIA actions on summary judgment without discovery). There is nothing before the Court to suggest that this case is exceptional. As such, Plaintiff's request to conduct discovery prior to the summary judgment motion is denied. Court Recorder: CS 02/08/19. (sbou) (Additional attachment(s) added on 2/8/2019: # 1 Attachment 1, # 2 Attachment 2, # 3 Attachment 3, # 4 Attachment 4, # 5 Attachment 5) # 6 Attachment 6) (sbou).
