Opinion/Order [33]
FOIA Project Annotation: Judge James Boasberg has ruled that documentary filmmaker Kohl Harrington is not entitled to a summary judgment requiring the FDA to respond to his multiple FOIA requests for records on pet food that were submitted to the Center for Veterinary Medicine. While Harrington had bombarded CVM with more than 20 FOIA requests, his summary judgment motion concerned the two remaining requests from a series of eight requests he had submitted in the spring of 2020. In the process of responding to Harrington's eight requests, CVM processed and produced more than 7,000 pages and a number of videos. Boasberg noted that Harrington had not filed any substantive motion opposing the agency's proposal to pause processing of the remaining requests for 60 days to allow CVM to shift its limited resources to concentrate on completing the two outstanding requests, a process CVM estimated would be completed in March 2023. Boasberg began his analysis by noting that "the issue for the Court to decide is simple: is FDA's timeline for processing Harrington's FOIA requests reasonable? For two independent reasons, the answer is yes." He explained that "first, by opting not to file a reply and not addressing the issue in his Motion, the Court may treat the Plaintiff as conceding any objection to FDA's proposed production schedule." Continuing, Boasberg noted that "second, even if Plaintiff had properly objected to FDA's timeline, the agency has the better argument on the merits. While courts in this district have exercised that discretion in somewhat different ways depending on the facts and posture of the case, they have largely coalesced around the proper considerations that inform a reasonable determination. . .For instance, courts have looked to the volume of requests an agency faces, how much requests to the agency have increased in recent years, the resources and capacity of the agency, other FOIA litigation in which the agency is involved, the agency's release policies, and how ordering swifter production would affect other FOIA requesters patiently waiting their turn." Boasberg indicated that "here, not only has FDA already fulfilled six of Harrington's eight requests, but he has himself to blame for the remaining production schedule: to promptly obtain the outstanding records, all he needs to do is ask the agency to shift its resources. Against this backdrop, it is reasonable for FDA to ask Plaintiff to choose how he wishes his various requests to be prioritized. If that were not the case, a single requester could hobble an agency and stymie all other FOIA requesters, all without satisfying the statutory criteria for expedited processing." Boasberg concluded that "in sum, even if Plaintiff is correct that FDA did not make a timely 'determination' â€" which does not require an agency to 'actually produce the documents within the relevant time period' â€" he has not put forth any compelling reason to conclude that FDA's proposed production schedule is unlawful."
