Case Detail

FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Timothy Kelly has ruled that the Department of Justice has not shown why a series of requests made by attorney Francisco Martinez for records concerning the Chicano civil rights move in Colorado from 1968 to 1978 should not be joined in one suit. Martinez's requests were not identical, but many of them overlapped. He requested a fee waiver from each agency or, alternatively, to be included in the news media fee category. He filed suit against seven agencies for withholding records and denying his fee waiver requests. The government then filed a motion to sever the cases, arguing that they were not sufficiently related. Kelly disagreed. He explained that "Martinez's FOIA requests involve the same transaction because they are logically related.' All of his requests seek records referring to or relating to specific individuals, organizations, and events connected to the Chicano civil rights movement in Colorado from 1968 to 1978. That is sufficient to meet the legal standard here. FOIA requests are 'logically related' when they belong to 'essentially identical categories of records. . .regarding the same underlying subject matter.'" He added that "the 'same-transaction' prong does not require that all of these requests be identical." Kelly pointed out that "Defendants are all federal agencies with law enforcement and intelligence-gathering functions that Martinez asserts monitored the Chicano civil rights movement in Colorado during the time period in question," and agreed that "several of the relevant agencies coordinated certain operations relating to the Chicano civil rights movement and [Martinez] identifies specific inter-agency memoranda that reflect such coordination." Kelly indicated that "it appears that certain common exemptions will be asserted by the agencies at summary judgment, giving rise to common questions of law." He added that "the Court is satisfied that, as the litigation now stands, there is likely to be some question of law or fact between the claims," including Martinez's entitlement to a fee waiver or inclusion in the news media fee category. The government argued that the case could only proceed to summary judgment as quickly as could the slowest agency. But Kelly observed that "that argument alone cannot justify severing the case, because there are other procedures better suited to avoiding such prejudice." He indicated that "the Court may finalize individual claims against each agency to avoid prejudicing."

2024-03-05		MINUTE ORDER: As discussed at today's status conference, it is hereby ORDERED that the Court intends to sua sponte reconsider Plaintiff's 61 Motion for Processing Schedule, should the Court regain jurisdiction to do so because the appeal of the Court's 72 Order resolving that motion is withdrawn. It is further ORDERED that if Plaintiff wishes to avail himself of Rule 62.1 instead, he may file a motion to reconsider the Court's 72 Order by March 11, 2024, and the Court will issue an indicative ruling that it would grant the motion, insofar as it intends to vacate the 72 Order and hear from the parties before deciding the 61 Motion.

2024-03-20	87	RESPONSE re 86 MOTION for Reconsideration re 72 Order on Motion for Order and Indicative Ruling filed by U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE. (Walker, Anna) (Entered: 03/20/2024)
2024-04-09		MINUTE ORDER: Plaintiff in this FOIA case filed a 61 Motion for a Processing Schedule for the FBI to process responsive records at a rate of 6,500 pages per month, rather than its current rate of 500 pages per month. The Court entered an 72 Order denying the motion. Plaintiff appealed that decision, and then filed a 74 Motion to Amend or Correct the Court's order. The Court, at a status conference with the parties, indicated that upon its review of the 74 Motion to Amend or Correct, if the case were returned to it from the Court of Appeals, it would sua sponte vacate its 72 Order, hear argument from the parties on several legal and factual issues raised by the original 61 motion, and resolve it anew. Thus, at the Court's suggestion, Plaintiff has now filed a 86 motion to reconsider the Court's 72 Order. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 62.1 provides that upon the timely filing of a motion "for relief that the court lacks authority to grant because of an appeal that has been docketed and is pending, the court may: (1) defer considering the motion; (2) deny the motion; or (3) state either that it would grant the motion if the court of appeals remands for that purpose or that the motion raises a substantial issue." The Court now re-states what it told the parties at the status conference: that if the Court of Appeals remands the case to it, the Court would grant the 86 motion insofar as the Court would vacate the 72 Order that is the subject of the appeal, hear argument from the parties on several legal and factual issues raised in the original 61 motion, and then resolve the motion anew in light of the parties' arguments and any further briefing that it might order.
