Re:  Adopting magistrate judge's report and recommendation; granting defendant's motion for summary judgment

Disposition:  Requests for records concerning "'purported hacking by unknown perpetrators'"

  • Litigation Considerations, Mootness and Other Grounds for Dismissal:  The court relates that "Plaintiff filed the instant action . . . alleging he still had not received the requested information."  The court finds that "Plaintiff fails to submit any evidence to dispute Defendant's evidence that it responded to Plaintiff's FOIA [requests]."  The court holds that "the record demonstrates Defendant complied with and responded to Plaintiff's FOIA requests making this case moot."
