Meyer v. Doe, No. 24-0549, 2024 WL 4026263 (D. Minn. Sept. 3, 2024) (Docherty, Mag. J.)

Re:  Request for records concerning plaintiff

Disposition:  Denying plaintiff’s motion to compel

  • Litigation Considerations:  The court holds that “a ‘motion to compel’ is not the appropriate vehicle to seek compliance with a FOIA request.”  “[Plaintiff’s] failure to file a complaint in a separate civil action means that the Court lacks subject-matter jurisdiction over the FOIA request at issue.”
