| 2022-10-03 | | MINUTE ORDER. In a status report submitted on August 26, 2019 20 , defendant stated that processing of records responsive to the second part of plaintiff's FOIA request was continuing consistent with a schedule established in Judicial Watch v. DOJ, 16-cv-2046-TSC. It added: "As reported in prior status reports, although FBI has completed its initial processing of records subject to FOIA for production/withholding or for consultation to other agencies that would be responsive to the second part of this FOIA request, FBI had referred for consultation records originating from or containing the equities of more than a dozen government agencies. Since January 6, 2017, the FBI has sent approximately 92 consultation requests to over a dozen agencies and one direct referral to State, totaling approximately 5,541 pages from the pending Clinton investigative file. Of those approximately 92 consultation requests, approximately 45 of them, which may contain information responsive to the request at issue, are outstanding." It is now 2022 and months and years have gone by with little input from the agencies that have supposedly been consulted. Therefore, defendant must file a more specific, clarifying status report by October 28, 2022. The status report must inform the Court of the status of the proceedings in 16-cv-2046, and whether there is an order in that case establishing a schedule for the completion of the long-overdue consultations. If there is no such schedule in place, the status report must include specific information about the status of the consultation requests at each agency and a proposed schedule for the completion of that task at each agency.
