Re:  Request for records concerning incident at port of entry involving plaintiff

Disposition:  Dismissing complaint with leave to amend

Litigation Considerations, Pleadings:  The court holds that "Plaintiff has not stated a viable FOIA claim" because "the Complaint does not show that any agency has improperly withheld information from Plaintiff."  Specifically, the court finds that "there is a lack of detail as to what was returned [from the agencies which received plaintiff's request] and if it amounted to a withholding of information."
