Re
:
Im
trying
to
figure
out
the
DOJs
rationale
for
producing
these
records,
which
appear
to
only
be
a
portion
of
the
pleading
file
from
the
governments
vindictive
prosecution
case
against
Lt.
Daniel
Choi.
For
example,
on
page
26
of
the
Governments
Opposition
to
Petition
for
Writ
of
Mandamus
to
United
Stated
District
Court,
there
is
a
reference
to
the
Government
Exhibit
at
Tab
J.
Where
is
Tab
J
?
Meanwhile,
where
are
the
rest
of
the
exhibits
?
Did
the
DOJ
produce
at
its
discretion
only
some
of
the
pleadings
filed
in
the
governments
case
against
Lt.
Choi
?
What
was
the
standard
used
to
produce
some
pleadings,
but
not
all
?
I
have
to
seriously
question
whether
the
DOJs
decision
to
produce
only
some
of
the
pleadings
wasnt
just
an
effort
at
creating
a
red
herring,
whereby
I
now
have
to
chase
for
missing
exhibits
or
annexes
referenced
in
these
documents,
but
lose
my
focus
on
going
after
the
documents
and
records
that
were
identified
in
the
FOIA
Request.
This
is
just
more
indication
of
the
DOJ
acting
in
bad
faith.
Furthermore,
it
seems
inexplicable
that
the
DOJ
would
invoke
privacy
as
a
reason
to
deny
the
release
of
records
pertaining
to
Lt.
Choi
(if
any
of
the
records
being
sought
from
the
DOJ
in
the
FOIA
Request
should
happen
to
be
specific
to
Lt.
Choi).
For
example,
Lt.
Choi
was
not
an
employee
of
the
DOJ.
I
am
not
seeking
employment
records,
healthcare
records,
financial
or
credit
rating
reports,
or
other
records
that
one
would
consider
to
be
private,
unless
the
DOJ
has
collected
such
records
about
Lt.
Choi
but
cannot
disclose
them
due
to
Lt.
Chois
privacy
rights.
Can
you
describe
the
privacy-encumbered
records
and
produce
an
index
of
the
descriptions
?
Finally,
I
find
it
difficult
to
believe
that
no
records
were
found
responsive
to
the
FOIA
Request.
Is
there
a
reason
that
the
cover
letter
stated
that
the
DOJ
appeared
to
have
limited
the
search
to
only
the
U.S.
Attorneys
Office
for
the
District
of
Columbia
?
What
was
the
process
used
by
which
the
search
for
responsive
records
was
conducted
?
As
indicated
to
you
in
prior
correspondence,
I
plan
to
request
discovery
in
this
case
at
our
Initial
Conference
with
U.S.
Magistrate
Judge
Roanne
L.
Mann.
All
these
open
questions,
and
any
others
created
by
the
DOJs
response
and
non-response
to
the
FOIA
Request,
are
an
invitation
to
conduct
discovery.
I
may
make
other
requests
to
U.S.
Magistrate
Judge
Mann,
as
well.
To
follow-up
on
our
telephone
conference
of
31
July
2015,
if
you
plan
to
apply
to
cancel
the
Initial
Conference,
I
will
oppose
your
application,
because
I
believe
we
must
have
an
initial
meeting
with
U.S.
Magistrate
Judge
Mann.
As
stated,
I
am
still
reviewing
the
documents,
so
I
dont
have
a
complete
impression
of
the
random
records
that
the
DOJ
has
produced.
Let
me
know
if
you
have
time
on
Friday
afternoon
to
schedule
a
telephone
conference,
so
that
we
may
speak
more
about
the
DOJs
response
to
the
FOIA
Request.
Yours sincerely,
Louis Flores
