Date
Re: Request for records concerning plaintiff
Disposition: Affirming district court's grant of defendant's motion for summary judgment
- Exemption 3: The court finds that "[t]he district court properly granted summary judgment" to NSA on plaintiff's FOIA claim "because the agency provided an affidavit establishing that Exemption 3 of FOIA . . . precludes acknowledgment of the existence of the requested documents." NSA has invoked Exemption 3 pursuant to the National Security Agency Act of 1959 ("NSA Act").
