| 2017-07-06 | | MINUTE ORDER. Before the Court in this FOIA case are a complaint and an answer. The requirements of Local Civil Rule 16.3 and Rule 26(f) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure appear to be inapplicable.

| 2017-08-08 | | MINUTE ORDER. The Court can take judicial notice of the volume of FOIA matters involving the State Department that are pending in this district and it acknowledges that there are significant demands on the agency's resources. But defendants have done little in their submission to quantify either the work already in the pipeline, the amount of time it takes to process any quantity of pages, or the number of employees available to do the work, so the Court cannot approve the extremely slow proposed schedule on this record. Therefore, defendants are ordered to process 400 pages per month and to file status reports on November 1, 2017, February 1, 2018, and when production is complete (or on April 15, 2018 if the Court has not already been informed that production is complete by that date). SO ORDERED. Signed by Judge Amy Berman Jackson on 8/8/2017. (lcabj3) (Entered: 08/08/2017) |
