Case DescriptionImmigration attorneys Zachary Nightingale, Courtney McDermed, and Cheryl David submitted FOIA requests to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services for alien files on behalf of their clients. Non-citizens Pao Lopa and Maribel Carandano submitted FOIA requests for their alien files. After the agency failed to respond, the requesters filed a class action suit against U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the Department of Homeland Security for the agencies' routine failure to provide alien files within the statutory time limit for responding.

Opinion/Order [47]
FOIA Project Annotation: A federal court in California has certified a group of three immigration attorneys and two non-citizens to represent the class of frequent FOIA requesters bringing a pattern or practice claim against the Department of Homeland Security for the failure of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to provide Alien files within the statutory time limit under FOIA. One contributor to the agency's backlog in responding to requests for A-Files is its policy of referring portions of A-Files to ICE for review. Judge William Orrick agreed that the five representatives of the class had met the four factors �" numerosity, commonality, typicality, and adequacy �" under Rule 23(a) for certification as a class. Addressing the issue of numerosity, Orrick noted that "plaintiffs provide various declarations of immigration attorneys that show at least 173 A-File FOIA requests filed on behalf of noncitizens have been pending with USCIS for more than 30 business days without a determination, and at least 139 A-File FOIA requests that USCIS has referred to ICE and have been pending for more than 30 business days. Plaintiffs also point to the backlogs reported by DHS as evidence that defendants know the exact number of class members who have not received a timely determination." On the issue of commonality, Orrick explained that in Hajro v. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, 811 F.3d 1086 (9th Cir. 2016), the Ninth Circuit had recognized a pattern or practice claim for failure to respond within the statutory time limits, but had sympathized with plaintiffs whose challenges often became moot once the agency had responded to their individual requests. DHS argued that the class representatives represented only an aggregation of individuals challenging the way in which their A-File requests were being processed. Orrick disagreed, noting instead that "this argument rests upon a misunderstanding of plaintiffs' claims, which do not relate to the delay in any particular A-File FOIA request but instead to defendants' 'widespread practice of failing to make a determination within FOIA's statutory time frame' that can be resolved in a 'single stroke.' Plaintiffs have established commonality because the shared injury between plaintiffs and proposed class members is the delayed receipt of determination on their A-File FOIA requests filed with USCIS, and, with respect to the ICE Referral class, subsequently referred by USCIS to ICE. This delayed receipt is the result of defendants' alleged pattern and practice of failing to make determinations in A-File FOIA cases within the statutorily mandated time frame, making it the common contention, or the 'glue' that holds each class member together." Addressing the issue of typicality, Orrick observed that "here, plaintiffs and proposed class members have filed or will file A-File FOIA requests to defendants who are required to make timely determinations pursuant to the timeframe set forth in [FOIA]. Thus, plaintiffs seek the same relief that members of the proposed class would seek: the timely determination of their A-File FOIA requests." On the issue of adequacy, Orrick pointed out that "both plaintiffs and proposed class members have a shared interest in ensuring that defendants make determinations in response to their A-File FOIA requests within the statutory time period." Orrick also found the proposed class would represent the interests of the larger class. He observed that "plaintiffs do not seek relief with respect to the determination made on individual A-File FOIA requests. They 'challenge Defendants' pattern or practice of refusing to timely make such determinations.' Plaintiffs' pattern or practice claim is 'central to the claims of all class members irrespective of their individual circumstances and the disparate effects of the conduct.' Certification, therefore, does not hinge on the complexities of each A-File requested but rather on the uniform untimeliness in responding to A-File FOIA requests."
