How courts have described this case

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

  • affirming the application of a FOIA exemption to withhold names of witnesses and personnel implicated in a civil rights investigation because “[d]isclosure would not significantly advance the public knowledge of government operations”
  • “The Court finds that the investigations were carried out to enforce federal civil rights laws, and thus had a law enforcement purpose. The fact that they were not criminal investigations does not defeat the application of Exemption 7.”
