Court opinion issued July 19, 2018
Sikes v. U.S. Dep't of the Navy (11th Cir.) -- holding that: (1) district court erred in allowing Navy to ignore plaintiff's request for certain records concerning suicide of Admiral Boorda merely because agency had released records in response to plaintiff's duplicate request five years earlier; (2) although district court failed to address whether Navy properly withheld suicide note from Admiral Boorda to his wife pursuant to Exemption 7(C), there was no need to remand case because law was clear that note was properly protected from disclosure.
