Case Detail

FOIA Project Annotation: A federal court in Georgia has ruled that the Office of the Fulton County District Attorney is entitled to attorney's fees for its litigation against the Department of Justice. As part of its investigation into the fatal shooting in Fulton County of Jamarian Robinson by the U.S. Marshals Service Southeast Regional Fugitive Task Force, the Fulton County District Attorney's Office submitted three FOIA requests for records concerning the task force's standard operating procedures and records related to the investigation of Robinson's death. The agency initially denied the requests, citing Exemption 7(A) (interference with ongoing investigation or proceeding). The agency later dropped its Exemption 7(A) claim and disclosed all the records the district attorney had requested. However, at the time the district attorney's summary judgment motion was granted, the court declined to award attorney's fees. This time, the court found that Fulton County had substantially prevailed by receiving an order requiring the agency to disclose the requested records. The court found that USMS's investigation was internal in nature and carried no likelihood of criminal penalties and, thus, was not conducted for law enforcement purposes in the first place. The court concluded that "because defendant has not shown it correctly withheld the 7(A) Records under Exemption 7(A), and because those records constitute a sizeable portion of the total records sought by Plaintiff in this case, Plaintiff's claim for the records was 'not insubstantial.' Plaintiff has obtained relief though a voluntary change in Defendant's position on a not insubstantial claim." Turning to Fulton County's entitlement to fees, the court observed that "the Court has already determined the records were not exempt. And Defendant has done nothing to show its assertion of Exemption 7(A) was reasonable though ultimately incorrect." The court granted Fulton County $113,037 in fees, deducting $22,280 from Fulton County's fee request for reimbursement for its related but separate litigation in a Touhy subpoena action.

2021-08-12		ORDER (by docket entry only). Plaintiff's motion for attorneys' fees (Dkt. 52 ) relies on the sworn declaration of attorney Richard L. Robbins (Dkt. 52-1). Mr. Robbins opines that the hourly rate charged by Plaintiff's attorneys and paralegals in this case is comparable to (or less than) the hourly rate charged by similar attorneys and paralegals in the Atlanta area. (Dkt. 52-1 at paragraphs 14-15.) Plaintiff should submit evidence, no later than August 18, 2021, that this statement holds true specifically for the kind of services provided by Plaintiff's attorneys and paralegals in this case. See Norman v. Hous. Auth. of City of Montgomery , 836 F.2d 1292, 1299 (11th Cir. 1988) ("A reasonable hourly rate is the prevailing market rate in the relevant legal community for similar services by lawyers of reasonably comparable skills, experience, and reputation.... [S]atisfactory evidence necessarily must speak to rates actually billed and paid in similar lawsuits ." (emphasis added)); see also Eley v. D.C. , 793 F.3d 97, 104 (D.C. Cir. 2015) ("Absent from [Plaintiff's] submission, however, is evidence that her requested rates are in line with those prevailing in the community for similar services, i.e. , IDEA litigation.... [Plaintiff] has not met her burden of justifying the reasonableness of the rates."). Relatedly, Plaintiff claims in its brief that Mr. Robbins' "experience does include[] involvement with numerous FOIA and Open Records Act disputes, both directly and in a supervisory role." (Dkt. 59 at 10.) Plaintiff should also submit evidence supporting and elaborating on this assertion no later than August 18, 2021. Ordered by Judge Michael L. Brown on 8/12/2021.
