Complaint
Complaint attachment 1
Opinion/Order [59]
FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Emmet Sullivan has ruled that the Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys has now shown which exemption claims were made by other agencies, such as the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, in response to a 57-part request by Robert Burke for records concerning Joan Markman, in whose death Burke apparently played a role. Finding that Exemption 7(D) (confidential sources) was appropriately claimed, Sullivan noted that "in light of the brazen nature of the investigated crime and plaintiff's ultimate conviction, it is reasonable to infer that the individual would have provided information to the FBI under an implied assurance of confidentiality."
Issues: Exemption 7(D) - Assurance of confidentiality - Implicit
