Case DescriptionThe Centro de Periodismo Investigativo, LatinoJustice, and the Center for Constitutional Rights submitted a FOIA request to the Department of the Treasury for records concerning the operations of the fiscal oversight board appointed to oversee Puerto Rico's fiscal affairs. The requesters also requested expedited processing. The agency acknowledged receipt of the request and denied the request for expedited processing. The agency also suggested that the request be narrowed. The requesters filed an administrative appeal of the denial of expedited processing. The requesters had several discussions with the agency as to the scope of the search. But after the agency failed to provide any substantive response, the requesters filed suit.
