New Civil Liberties Alliance, et al. v. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

CASE SUMMARY

This is an action under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) for declaratory and injunctive relief, seeking immediate processing and release of agency records responsive to our request following the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) failure to comply with the express terms of FOIA; the SEC’s failure to make a “determination” as defined in Citizens for Responsible Ethics in Washington v. Federal Election Commission; and the SEC’s unlawful denial of Plaintiffs’ requests for expedited processing and fee waivers.
