Disposition: Ordering in camera review
- Litigation Considerations, In Camera Inspection: "The Court concludes that in camera inspection is appropriate in this case and would facilitate a prompt resolution of the pending motions." "[The document at issue] is a two-page document, so in camera review will not unduly burden the Court." "The parties have had an opportunity to explain their positions on the propriety of the claimed exemptions, and the government has submitted two separate declarations to explain the FBI's justifications for its withholdings." 'The parties dispute the propriety of the FOIA exemptions based on the content of the redactions, not their interpretation of the redacted information."
