PlaintiffTerrence Kimberg
Case DescriptionTerrence Kimberg, a permanent resident alien, requested his alien file from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The agency acknowledged receipt of his request, but told him he had to provide verification of identity. Kimberg's attorney told USCIS that such verification was unnecessary in his case. The agency then closed Kimberg's request for failure to provide verification of identity. Kimberg then made a later identical request, which was also rejected for lack of verification of identity. Kimberg appealed and the agency upheld its original decision. Kimberg then filed suit.
