The D. C. Circuit issued seven opinions last week. Although the Department of State had published part of the 1989 report, one federal agency cannot waive another federal agency’s right to claim a FOIA exemption. Circuit considered only whether the district court reasonably responded to changed circumstances between 2020 and 2022. Ultimately, upon finding the district court reasonably responded to changed circumstances based on the updated TRAC analysis, the Court held some continued judicial involvement is appropriate. Sargent argued that the district court should have used § 2A2.2 of the Sentencing Guidelines because that guideline was more applicable to his conduct than § 2A2.4.
