Re: Request for records concerning plaintiff's criminal prosecution and conviction
Disposition: Granting defendant's motion for summary judgment
- Litigation Considerations, Mootness and Other Ground for Dismissal: "Because the Department has now adequately addressed the Court’s outstanding concern, and because the BOP has released all 25 pages of the remaining records, the Court has no further function to perform under FOIA." Also, "[t]he Court declines [plaintiff's] invitation [to "requir[e] the Department to attach the 25 disclosed pages of BOP records as 'an exhibit' to a public filing on the docket." "[T]he Department has satisfied its FOIA obligations by releasing the 25 pages of responsive BOP records directly to [plaintiff], and it need not take the additional step of submitting those records as an exhibit on the docket."
