How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• concluding that the predecisional deliberation exception was not established where the agency failed to “submit sufficient proof to show that all communications with any other government officials are ‘deliberative’ than factual in nature.”
• concluding request for “all records that were provided to the transferred inmates” was sufficiently specific because it sought “a discrete group of documents” limited by recipient
• upholding a request for “all records that were provided to the transferred inmates” because it sought “a discrete group of documents” limited by recipient
• remanding where “DOC did not connect responsive records with a threat to public safety” or address whether it “may be able to redact responsive records and thus render them non- threatening to public safety”
• explaining necessity of remand to tie asserted exemptions to requested information
• “a burden on an agency attendant to gathering responsive records does not pertain to sufficiency of a request or render it nonspecific.”
