FOIA Project Annotation: Judge John Bates has ruled that the Bureau of Prisons conducted an adequate search for records concerning agency policies prohibiting inmates from conducting a business from their cell. Darrell DeBrew has written and published several novels while in prison. He was the subject of several disciplinary actions because such activities were prohibited. After he got out of jail, DeBrew sued the government for violating his constitutional rights and for failure to fully respond to his FOIA request. The agency interpreted DeBrew's request as being for records concerning the agency's policy regarding the Prohibited Act of Conducting a Business, Code 408. As a result, the agency provided various Federal Register notices that it had published dealing with the issue. DeBrew argued that the agency must have records prior to the publication of the Federal Register notices. Finding the agency's search appropriate, Bates noted that "the decisions to forward plaintiff's request to the Correctional Services Division and to LCI were reasonable: the former is responsible for making and enforcing BOP regulations and disciplinary codes at the institution level, and the latter is responsible for developing and modifying the BOP regulations. As the declarant explains, these locations are the most likely places to have found responsive records." He observed that "BOP's failure to produce specific documents does not undermine the adequacy of its searches. Nor does the adequacy of BOP's searches turn on the level of plaintiff's satisfaction with the results."
