Re:  Request for records concerning plaintiff's criminal case

Disposition:  Granting defendants' motion for summary judgment

• Litigation Considerations, Adequacy of Search:  The court relates that "Defendants' declaration set forth the search terms and type of search performed, identified which systems were searched, and averred that all files likely to contain responsive materials were searched."  "Comparing the documents plaintiff requested to the systems searched and the terms used to conduct the search, and absent any countervailing evidence suggesting that a genuine dispute of material fact exists as to the adequacy of the search . . . the Court holds that defendants conducted an adequate search."
