New FOIA Post Feature — Summaries of New Decisions in FOIA Cases

The first group of new decisions to be summarized are those that were decided in March 2007. That period coincides with the March 2007 date of completion of the most recent edition of the Department of Justice Freedom of Information Act Guide. Thereafter, summaries will be posted for the remaining months until we are current and from then on, the summaries will be regularly posted.

To facilitate their review, each decision will be broken down by exemption or procedural element. Although we have designed these summaries to reflect the key aspects of each decision, by their nature these are summaries only, and such things as internal citations and quotations have been omitted. Our goal is to provide readers with an overview of the cases as they are decided during the year, but for a complete understanding of any given case readers are, of course, encouraged to read it in its entirety.
