Court opinion issued Dec. 10, 2019
Ctr. for Investigating Reporting v. DOL (N.D. Cal.) -- finding that Department of Labor improperly relied on Exemption 4 to withhold federal contractors' employment diversity reports (known as EEO-1 reports) because: (1) records did not meet threshold of “commercial or financial” information; (2) agency did not carry burden to show that all withheld records were confidential, as certain information was in public domain; and (3) agency did not demonstrate that statute’s foreseeable harm standard was satisfied.
