Case Detail

FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Gladys Kessler rejected George Canning's third motion to conduct discovery.
Issues: Litigation - Discovery

FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Gladys Kessler has ruled that the FBI conducted an adequate search for records responsive to four requests submitted by George Canning pertaining to Lyndon LaRouche, Paul Goldstein, and Jeffrey Steinberg, including various information that had been declassified as a result of an ISCAP review. even though the agency insisted that it had no record of receiving three of them. Kessler also approved all the agency's exemption claims, but agreed with Canning that because the FBI had disclosed the names of two individuals in response to previous FOIA requests it was required to provide that information to Canning in response to these requests. Although the FBI claimed it had only received Canning's request to the FBI Washington Field Office and not those he sent to FBI headquarters, Kessler was satisfied that the agency had searched for and processed all records encompassed by all of Canning's requests. Kessler reject Canning's challenges to withholding claims made under Exemption 1 (national security), Exemption 3 (other statutes), Exemption 7(C) (invasion of privacy concerning law enforcement records), Exemption 7(D) (confidential sources), and Exemption 7(E) (investigative methods and techniques), she agreed with Canning's argument that because the agency had previously disclosed the names of two individuals whose identities it had redacted in response to these requests the identities were now in the public domain and the agency could not withhold them. She noted that "Mr. Canning has demonstrated that the Government previously released the Boston ELSUR information in response to Mr. Steinberg's FOIA request. The Government has not explained why the identity of the FOIA requester should affect the Court's analysis. In both instances, the material has been previously released to the public, a fact that warrants the disclosure of withheld information in this case."
Issues: Search - Reasonableness of search, Exemption 7(C) - Invasion of privacy concerning law enforcement records, Exemption 7 - Law enforcement records
