Dear FBI Public Information Officer: The FOIA allows requesters to file an administrative appeal with the agency for any information that was denied in response to a FOIA request.
Can you please advise if thr FOIA request should be appealed one of the following reason(s): - the refusal to release a record, either in whole or in part - the determination that a record does not exist or cannot be found - the determination that the record you sought was not subject to the FOIA - the denial of a request for expedited processing the denial of a fee waiver request. Additionally, an agent from the FBI should resolve the going back and forth of this request given the fragile nature of the organization's current leadership. Thank you, Gunnar Larson On Mon, Sep 23, 2024, 12:37 PM [email protected] < [email protected]> wrote: > The FOIPA does not require federal agencies to answer inquiries, create > records, conduct research, or draw conclusions concerning queried data. > Rather, the FOIPA requires agencies to provide access to reasonably > described, nonexempt records.
