  • holding that FOIA required production of records in electronic format, as requested, even though paper copies had already been provided
  • distinguishing between the BOP’s role as a FOIA administrator and its role as a custodian of inmates
  • “Relying on pre-1996 cases, this Court held that since Martinez was afforded a meaningful opportunity to review his PSRs and to take notes on them, FOIA did not entitle him to retain a copy of them.” (cleaned up)
