Opinion/Order [35]
FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Randolph Moss has ruled that EOUSA conducted an adequate search for records concerning communications between three Assistant U.S. Attorneys in the Northern District of Mississippi and their legal secretaries that refer to Peter Bernegger or others involved in his prosecution and conviction for mail and bank fraud. Moss also found that, with one exception, the agency had properly redacted identifying information under Exemption 6 (invasion of privacy) and Exemption (C) (invasion of privacy concerning law enforcement records). Moss also rejected Bernegger's claim that the misconduct exception applied to waive the agency's claims under Exemption 5 (privileges) and that the Privacy Act did not provide a right of access to the emails. In response to Bernegger's requests, the agency disclosed 72 pages in full and 88 pages in part and withheld 130 pages in full. Bernegger challenged the search by EOUSA, claiming that a large number of pages were missing. Moss found that Bernegger's claim of missing pages was based solely on the fact that the agency had initially indicated that it had uncovered 1,375 potentially responsive records but failed to account for 540 records in its final response. Noting that the 1,375-page figure was an estimate, Moss dismissed the claim, noting that "an estimate does not create an entitlement to that number of pages of records. EOUSA was required to release or lawfully withhold only those records within the scope of Bernegger's request." Bernegger complained that the agency had improperly narrowed the scope of its search to records pertaining to his criminal case. However, Moss pointed out that "it is clear from the [agency's] declaration that the U.S. Attorney's Office did not narrow its search, as Bernegger contends, to emails between the specified AUSAs and their secretaries or to emails pertaining to Bernegger's criminal case. Rather, as requested, the office searched for any emails that referenced Bernegger's name or the specified criminal case numbers, as well as emails sent to or received by the specified AUSAs and their legal secretaries." Moss found the agency had properly redacted names and identifying information about third parties from the records, questioning only a single instance in which the agency had redacted identifying information from emails exchanged between U.S. Attorney's Office and the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Mississippi. He told the agency that it either could disclose that information or provide supplemental affidavits supporting its reason for the redactions. Moss rejected Bernegger's claim that the misconduct exception applied to waive the deliberative process privilege. Bernegger also claimed the Privacy Act provided him with a right of access to the emails, arguing that the (j)(2) exception did not apply. Moss found he did not need to address that issue, pointing out instead that "an email database, like that at issue here, does not constitute a 'system of records' and, thus, is not subject to the Privacy Act's disclosure requirement in the first place."

An actual CM/ECF password will not be provided until the tutorial has been successfully completed.). Because Plaintiff's motion does not currently include the information required by the local rules, the Court denies his motion but will permit him to refile his motion in accordance with the requirements described above.
