Congratulations and farewell to Melanie Pustay, who is retiring from the Department of Justice today after leading the Office of Information Policy for the past dozen years. Before becoming Director in 2007, Ms. Pustay served for eight years as OIP’s Deputy Director.

If you hadn’t noticed, OIP has been updating its online FOIA Guide throughout the year. The most recent sections to be updated are Litigation Considerations (9/25/19) and Procedural Requirements (9/4/19).
