Re:  Request for records concerning requester's criminal case

Disposition:  Affirming district court's grant of defendants' motion for summary judgment

• Procedural Requirements:  The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit relates that "in support of its motion for summary judgment, the government submitted the district court's sealing order and the subsequent order clarifying that the sealing order was intended to prohibit disclosure of the documents at issue."  "Considering both the sealing order and the clarifying order, [the court holds that] there was no genuine issue on whether ICE lacked discretion to disclose the documents and, thus, the agency properly withheld the documents."
