How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- declining to find the plaintiff waived an issue under certain circumstances, because the defendant “directed the [c]ourt to no legal authority to support its waiver argument, nor has it claimed to suffer prejudice as a result of [p]laintiffs’ late-raised argument”
- declining to bypass the deliberative process privilege where the lawsuit did not challenge the agency’s subjective intent in approving the plaintiff’s application but, rather, whether that approval was contrary to applicable procedural and requirements the agency was required to follow
