Court opinions issued May 18, 2020

Doyle v. DHS (2nd Cir. 2020) -- affirming district court’s decision that that visitor logs for White House and President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home are not “agency records” of the U.S. Secret Service, relying on D.C. Circuit’s 2013 opinion in Judicial Watch v. U.S. Secret Service.

District of Columbia v, ICE (D.D.C.) -- ruling that ICE properly relied on Exemption 7(C) to redact personal identifying information from records generated by agency’s arrest of twelve individuals in July 2018.

LaVictor v. Trump (D.D.C.) -- dismissing claims against three DOJ components because plaintiff offered no evidence that he had submitted requests, and dismissing claim against Federal Bureau of Prisons because plaintiff failed to appeal from agency’s 2016 adverse determination.
