Case Title SAI v. TRANSPORTATION SECURITY ADMINISTRATION
Case Number 1:2014cv00403
Date Filed 2014-03-13
Plaintiff SAI
Case Description Sai submitted a FOIA/PA request to the Transportation Safety Administration concerning an incident involving Sai and TSA personnel that took place at Boston's Logan Airport. Sai subsequently submitted another FOIA request pertaining to an incident involving Sai at the San Francisco Airport. Sai submitted three more requests for various policy documents. The requests asked for expedited processing and that Sai be placed in the news media category for fee purposes. The agency indicated that video taken at the airports was protected under Exemption 3 (other statutes) as sensitive security information, and that the requests were too broad. Sai finally filed suit.
Complaint issues: failure to respond, declare requests "reasonably described" records, grant of news media status and public interest fee waiver, arbitrary and capricious behavior, disclosure of all records, Privacy Act damages, attorney's fees, pattern and practice of improper withholding of records
Appeal D.C. Circuit 16-5004
FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Ellen Segal Huvelle has ruled that Sai is not entitled to a preliminary injunction requiring TSA to disclose records pertaining to his ADA and Rehabilitation Act complaints. Sai filed two FOIA requests to the agency pertaining to incidents he alleged occurred at the airports in Boston and San Francisco. After the agency failed to respond, Sai filed suit asking for a preliminary injunction requiring the agency to disclose the requested records. The agency argued Sai was requesting relief beyond the scope of his FOIA complaint, but Huvelle noted that "plaintiff does specifically identity his November 2013 FOIA/PA request in the complaint and further alleges TSA's non-compliance with statutory deadlines as to that request. Moreover, plaintiff seeks in his complaint broad relief�"including production of requested documents�"as to 'all' his FOIA/PA requests. Construed liberally�"as the court must�"plaintiff's complaint seeks a court order requiring TSA to produce documents requested in his November 2013 FOIA/PA request." However, finding that she had jurisdiction over the claim, Huvelle concluded Sai was not entitled to relief, noting that "he has failed to demonstrate any�"let alone 'very serious'�"irreparable harm that would befall him absent the extraordinary relief of a preliminary injunction." She observed that "to be sure, a movant's general interest in timely processing of FOIA requests may be sufficient to establish irreparable harm if the information sought is 'time-sensitive.' In this regard, plaintiff implores the Court to consider the 'larger context of news and public interest reporting on a nationwide, multi-year pattern and practice of TSA violations of individuals' rights at checkpoints.' While this argument gets closer to those FOIA cases in which courts have found irreparable harm, the Court concludes that plaintiff has not provided any evidence to demonstrate the time-sensitivity of and public concern over the 'specific subject' of the TSA's responses to plaintiff's Rehabilitation Act grievances." She pointed out that "plaintiff 'has failed to demonstrate any time sensitive need for [the requested] information that will be irreparably lost if disclosure does not occur immediately' and this case is allowed to proceed down the typical path of FOIA litigation."
FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Randolph Moss has ruled that because various motions filed by pro se litigant Sai are premature, he is not entitled to compel TSA to disclose orders it may rely on to support its characterization of surveillance footage as sensitive security information, he is not entitled to attorney's fees, and he is not entitled to add 14 other FOIA requests to the current complaint. Noting that the case was nearly ready for consideration of the merits, Moss pointed out that Sai had peppered the court with motions, most of which were unnecessary. Moss indicated that Sai was apparently concerned that he would miss his deadline to appeal the agency's SSI order to the D.C. Circuit, which has original jurisdiction over TSA's orders. Acknowledging Sai's concerns, Moss noted that "but, as to the substance of [a motion to the D.C. Circuit], the Court remains convinced that resolution of any potential issues relating to SSI is premature. The Court does not yet know what information, if any, TSA will contend should be withheld and it does not know what dispute may exist with respect to the designation of any such SSI. . .It is important, however, to recall that this is a FOIA and Privacy Act case relating to specific requests for records. Before the Court can adjudicate this case, it needs to know what specific requests remain unanswered, what specific exemptions TSA invokes and the basis for its determinations, and why Plaintiff disputes those determinations." Although the agency had already disclosed some 3,000 pages, Moss explained that Sai's motion for attorney's fees was also premature. He noted that "it is too early to assess even whether [any] particular order will result in any 'relief' to Plaintiff, much less whether Plaintiff will substantially prevail in this case." Because Sai was proceeding pro se, he was not entitled to attorney's fees, only costs. Moss indicated that "in light of the Court's holding that Plaintiff has no and cannot, demonstrate 'eligibility' or 'entitlement' to fees and costs at this stage of the litigation, it need not consider whether he would be entitled�"if and when he does substantially prevail�"to costs and/or a nominal award of attorney's fees as he asserts." Moss rejected Sai's motion to add the additional FOIA requests, noting that "the addition of fourteen additional FOIA/Privacy Act requests to this case would merely result in undue delay in the disposition of this case and would not enhance judicial efficiency."
Opinion/Order [162]
FOIA Project Annotation: Addressing his complaints pertaining to the Transportation Security Administration's handling of his multiple requests concerning two incidents at Boston and San Francisco airports, Judge Randolph Moss has ruled that there remain unanswered questions concerning the agency's legal obligation to provide records in Sai's choice of format, as well as issues related to the adequacy of the agency's searches. Moss's decision provides more discussion of the choice of format provision than any court ruling so far, although he relied primarily on Scudder v. CIA, 25 F. Supp. 3d 19 (D.D.C. 2014), the only other case to discuss the provision in detail. Even though Moss concluded that the parties needed to supplement their arguments, he raised serious questions about whether or not an electronic records universe that depends heavily on scanned PDF files is sufficient to satisfy the choice of format provision. Sai submitted a total of six FOIA requests to TSA in 2013 for records concerning incidents at TSA checkpoints at Boston and San Francisco airports, as well as previous incidents at New York's LaGuardia and Chicago's O'Hare airports. He also submitted a request for all TSA policies and procedures that were not already posted in TSA's electronic reading room. The agency told Sai that request was too broad and invited him to narrow the request. When Sai did not respond, the agency administratively closed his request. However, about a year after Sai filed suit, the agency searched 15 offices for the types of documents that were discernible from the text of his closed request. As a result, the agency initially disclosed 1,416 pages with redactions and a further 1,623 pages a month later. Sai's fifth and sixth requests asked for records about the Boston and San Francisco incidents, including those that had been created since his prior requests. Sai, who has a disability, claimed that the agency had violated both FOIA and the Rehabilitation Act, although Moss quickly concluded that he had no cause of action under the Rehabilitation Act and dismissed that claim. Since Sai had requested records in electronic format, he claimed the agency had failed to provide them in discrete useful formats. He complained that the agency had used a "rasterized" PDF format �" scanning paper documents that irreversibly rendered text into an image format �" rather than a "fully digital text PDF." Sai had requested records in "native" format, such as Word documents or Excel spreadsheets. In its defense, the agency pointed out that it used FOIAXpress software for processing FOIA requests, which did not have the capability to process records in native formats. Moss noted that "at least on the present record, the Court is unconvinced that these justifications satisfy the requirements of 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(3)(B)." He explained that Congress added the choice of format provisions in the 1996 EFOIA Amendments specifically to overturn Dismukes v. Dept of Interior, 603 F. Supp. 760 (D.D.C. 1984), which held that the agency was not required to disclose a computer tape of the list of participants in the Bureau of Land Management monthly oil and gas lease lotteries because those records were available on microfiche instead. In essence, Dismukes held that the choice of format was determined by the agency, not the requester. Congress changed this by requiring agencies to disclose records in formats that are "readily" reproducible and to consider the "technical feasibility" of doing so, according substantial weight to the agency's determination of technical feasibility. Moss observed that "but 'technically feasible' is not 'synonymous' with 'readily reproducible' and the Court must also 'consider the burden on the defendant' in producing records in a format that, although 'technically feasible,' is not 'readily' achieved." Moss pointed out that Sai's requests were not so much for a new format as for an existing format. He explained that "Congress adopted the 'readily reproducible' requirement in response [to Dismukes], leaving little doubt that the 'readily reproducible' requirement applies both to records that require conversion to a new format and to records, like those at issue here, that are sought in their original format, notwithstanding the fact that the agency can more easily release the records in a different format." Due to the lack of any D.C. Circuit case law on choice of format, the Scudder court relied on a standard articulated by the Ninth Circuit in TPS, Inc. v. Dept of Defense, 330 F. 3d 1191 (9th Cir. 2003), finding that whenever an agency converted documents to a certain format �" in response to a FOIA request, under a contract or during the ordinary course of business �" the agency was required to provide documents in that format to others absent a showing of an unnecessarily harsh burden. Based on that standard, Moss found TSA had not yet shown that the records Sai had requested in their original format could not be readily produced. He indicated that "there is no question that the TSA has the technical capacity to format the records in the manner requested; indeed, that is how the records were originally formatted and used by the agency." The agency argued that its FOIA software, as well as the need to review records for sensitive security information, made such a disclosure unduly burdensome. On the record before him, Moss rejected that claim. He pointed out that "the TSA's primary contention that the request was incompatible with the agency's then-existing FOIA processing software is in tension with the language and purpose of the E-FOIA amendments. The statute asks whether the record at issue 'is readily reproducible by the agency in' the requested format, and not whether reproducing the file in that format would complicate the agency's FOIA review process." He added that "because the TSA has yet to show that Sai's format request posed a 'significant interference or burden' beyond increased FOIA-processing costs, and because it has yet to show that administrative costs of that type constitute a legally sufficient basis for rejecting a format request, the TSA is not entitled to summary judgment with respect to the format of the records released in response to Sai's [requests]." Moss also agreed with Sai's contention that certain records were illegible. He pointed out that "FOIA requesters are entitled to a legible copy of responsive agency records." Moss upheld the adequacy of the agency's searches except as they applied to four offices, including the FOIA Office and the Office of Legislative Affairs. Moss noted that Sai had provided sufficient evidence that records responsive to his requests existed in those offices to require the agency to search them as well. Moss also found that the agency had not sufficiently explained the time frame of its searches as well as the failure of certain offices to use keywords in their searches. Moss agreed with the agency that Sai's request for unpublished policy and procedure documents was far too broad. Sai argued that once the agency decided to provide some responsive records to his policy and procedures request, it was obligated to respond fully. Moss noted that "if that nothing-or-all approach were to prevail, agencies would have a strong incentive to reject wildly overbroad FOIA requests, like Sai's Policies Request, and to refuse to make any effort to provide what they reasonably can. Nothing in FOIA or the governing law requires agencies, or the court adopt such a counterproductive approach." TSA withheld records under Exemption 3 (other statutes), citing the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, which allows the agency to withhold sensitive security information. Moss had previously found that under the statute, challenges to the designation of sensitive security information had to be brought in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, not the district court. However, he did examine Sai's contention that while TSA had disclosed SSI in a case brought by the ACLU, it had withheld the same information from him. TSA argued that it had subsequently unredacted some SSI information in the ACLU litigation after it had responded to Sai. Moss indicated that the public disclosure doctrine "does not �" and could not reasonably �" apply to information that was confidential at the time the agency responded to the plaintiff's FOIA request and was only subsequently officially released." Sending the issue back for further briefing, Moss indicated that Sai would have the burden of showing information disclosed to the ACLU was now public. Upholding most of the agency's claims under Exemption 6 (invasion of privacy) and Exemption 7(C) (invasion of privacy concerning law enforcement records), Moss found the agency had not sufficiently shown why names and contact information of agency employees that had dealt with Sai's disability complaints should be withheld. He also questioned whether the agency had shown that a handful of records claimed under Exemption 5 (privileges) qualified as deliberative.
Issues: Adequacy - Search, Choice of format, Exemption 3
FOIA Project Annotation: Judge Randolph Moss has ruled that pro se litigant Sai may not amend his multi-count FOIA suit against the Transportation Security Administration to add new FOIA counts as well as counts under the Rehabilitation Act. Moss noted that "as the Court understands Sai's proposed amendment, Sai seeks to challenge the TSA's purported failure to maintain an electronic, FOIA-reading room containing among other things, all 'statements of policy and interpretation which have been adopted by the agency, and that have not been 'published in the Federal Register.'" Characterizing Sai's original complaint as "comprehensive," Moss pointed out that "it may be that Sai now regrets not bringing a challenge to the adequacy of TSA's electronic FOIA-reading room but regret and clarification are not the same thing." Rejecting Sai's attempt to "clarify" his complaint, Moss observed that "in the present context, granting leave to amend would cause undue delay and unfairly prejudice the defendant. This case has been pending for well over four years. . .Most recently, the Court issued a 70-page opinion addressing Sai's challenges to 'virtually every aspect of the TSA's multiple searched and productions' in response to six separate FOIA requests. That decision narrowed the case, but leaves roughly a dozen questions for further briefing and development. Rather than narrowing and focusing the litigation, however, Sai treats the Court's opinion as a jumping-off point. In Sai's view, the opinion identifies ways in which the complaint might be improved or invites the parties to develop new theories to replace those the Court has considered and rejected." Moss pointed out that "that approach to litigation offers no end and is unfair to the opposing party." He indicated that "granting Sai's motion for leave to amend would inevitably extend [the] schedule by many months, and perhaps longer. Adding entirely new claims to the already lengthy set of issues for resolution as this date would not serve the interests of justice."

2016-12-07 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Judge Randolph D. Moss: Status Conference held on 12/7/2016. Court GRANTS IN PART Plaintiff's Motion for Extension of Time, as to filing an Opposition to the 99 Motion for Summary Judgment, to 1/30/2017; Defendant shall file their reply 30 days thereafter. No further extensions by Plaintiff will be granted. (Court Reporter: Jeff Hook). (kt) (Entered: 12/07/2016)
2016-12-07 MINUTE ORDER: In light of Plaintiff's long delay in responding to Defendant's motion for summary judgment 99 and in order to avoid further delay in resolving that long-pending motion, the Court directs that Plaintiff postpone the filing of a cross-motion for summary judgment, if any, until after the Court has resolved Defendant's motion for summary judgment. If the Court concludes that Defendant's motion for summary judgment should be denied in whole or in part, it will then set a separate briefing schedule that will permit Plaintiff to file his own motion for summary judgment. Filing a cross-motion for summary judgment at this time, however, will extend the current briefing schedule even further and will unfairly delay completion of briefing on a motion that Defendant filed six months ago and that, to date, has gone unanswered.

The Court explicitly instructed that it "d[id] not want any legal argument," and it limited Sai's supplemental filing to "20 samples" and a declaration identifying the documents. Within two hours of the conclusion of the hearing, Sai submitted the 20 permitted sample documents, a "supplemental affidavit" [116-1], and, in direct contravention of the Court's instructions, a "supplemental brief in opposition to MSJ," 116 . Moreover, Sai's supplemental affidavit includes multiple paragraphs of argument. Accordingly, the Court hereby STRIKES Sai's "supplemental brief" 116 and paragraphs 8 through 20 of his "supplemental affidavit" [116-1] for failure to comply with the Court's directives. Sai is admonished that future violations of the Court's orders may result in the imposition of sanctions.
