Case Detail

FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Amit Mehta has ruled that the Department of State properly withheld a legal memo authorizing U.S. participation in the 2016 Paris Climate Agreement under Exemption 5 (privileges). The Competitive Enterprise Institute submitted three FOIA requests concerning Circular 175, which provides the legal basis for U.S. participation in international treaties. The Department of State withheld the legal memo pertaining to the Paris Climate Agreement under Exemption 5. CEI argued that the only decision remaining for the Secretary upon receipt of the memo was whether or not to join the Paris Climate Agreement. But Mehta noted that "the very provision that Plaintiff cites for the proposition that [the Office of the Legal Advisor] must have made the decision as to the form of the agreement explicitly states that 'all legal memoranda accompanying Circular 175 requests . . . will discuss thoroughly the legal authorities underlying the type of agreement recommended. Although the provision goes on to provide additional steps that must be taken to obtain a decision from the Secretary as to the form of an agreement when there is no internal consensus on a recommendation for the accompanying legal memorandum, nowhere does the FAM or any other evidence put forth by Plaintiff suggest that anyone other than the Secretary or his designee had authority to make a decision as to the form of the Paris Climate Agreement." Mehta found the memo deliberative as well. He pointed out that "the Legal Memo originated in OLA, comprises subordinate officials' views on legal questions concerning the Paris Agreement, and flowed upward to the Secretary for a decision." Mehta rejected CEI's claim that the memo constituted working law. Instead, he observed that "it contains legal advice from a subordinate office for a decision to be made by a superior, the Secretary, on a matter of U.S. foreign policy. It is the opposite of 'working law.'" CEI also argued that the legal memo had been publicly acknowledged because it had been leaked. The State Department told the court that the legal memo had not been officially disclosed. Mehta noted that "plaintiff offers no evidence to contradict this representation. Moreover, the posted document bears no indicia of an official disclosure." He pointed out that "its mere public availability is not enough."
