Case Detail

FOIA Project Annotation: A federal court in California has ruled that the government may sever a FOIA suit brought by the American Small Business League against OMB and the Small Business Administration because the claims against each agency are sufficiently different to merit separating them. ASBL submitted a single request to OMB for records reflecting the federal acquisition budget for each year. OMB responded that there was no specific federal acquisition budget for each year and that it did not have any responsive records. ASBL submitted three separate FOIA requests to SBA for a variety of records, focusing on communications from Terry Sutherland, who directed the SBA press office. The other request asked for records pertaining to various members of the National Small Business Development Center Advisory Board. SBA denied ASBL's requests for a fee waiver for all three requests. ASBL filed suit against both agencies, alleging that OMB violated FOIA by not disclosing responsive records, while SBA violated FOIA by not granting ASBL fee waivers. The government asked the district court to sever the cases. Magistrate Judge Donna Ryu agreed. She noted that "here, ASBL does not allege the same or similar 'underlying course of conduct' with respect to its FOIA requests. Instead, it submitted different FOIA requests to different agencies, received different responses from each agency, and pursues different claims and remedies against each." She pointed out that "given that ASBL is suing two agencies for different types of claims regarding unrelated FOIA requests, there is no case management efficiency or other benefit to be gained from allowing the case to proceed under one caption. In fact, permitting joinder under such circumstances may result in overall delays." She indicated that "ASBL's claims against SBA are severed and shall proceed under a separate case with SBA as the sole defendant."
Issues: Litigation - Jurisdiction

FOIA Project Annotation: A federal court in California has ruled that OMB properly responded to a FOIA request from the American Small Business League for records containing the total federal acquisition budget for FY 2017, FY 2018, and FY 2019 by telling ASBL that "no specific total Federal acquisition budget each year." OMB sent ASBL a copy of the President's Budget, but ASBL rejected that as non-responsive. ASBL then filed suit, challenging the adequacy of the agency's search. Magistrate Judge Donna Ryu explained that "ASBL's argument essentially rests on its contentions about how OMB should have interpreted its FOIA request. However, the record demonstrates that ASBL took and continues to take shifting positions about the scope of its original request." She pointed out that "in short, ASBL's interpretation of its FOIA request has been a moving target. Its counsel's communications to OMB about the request have been internally inconsistent and/or confusing. ASBL does not address, explain, or otherwise attempt to harmonize the various positions it has taken on the request. As its arguments about the adequacy of OMB's search rest on the interpretation set forth in motions, i.e., that the request sought 'information on spending good and services for the federal government,' the question is whether this is a permissible interpretation of ASBL's original request." Ryu noted that "the plain language of the request (and its subsequent clarification) unambiguously seeks only budget-related information, not spending information. It also seeks 'the total' budget for acquisitions, not records 'indicating or containing information about the budget." Finding that OMB's searches were adequate, she observed that "ASBL now suggests that OMB should have searched for the individual words 'total,' 'federal,' 'acquisition,' and 'budget,' but it does not explain how searches for such broad, general terms would reasonably yield responsive records."
