Eddington v. DOJ (D.D.C.) -- concluding that DOJ’s National Security Division properly invoked Exemptions 1, 6, 7(A), and 7(C) in refusing to confirm or deny the existence of intelligence and investigative records related to Amir Mohamed Meshal, a U.S. citizen who was detained by both Kenyan and Ethiopian government entities between 2006 and 2007.

Sheppard v. DOJ (W.D. Mo.) -- finding that plaintiff was entitled to $344,122.30 in attorney’s fees out of $444,314 requested and reducing award primarily due to excessive time spent on complaint and duplicative staffing; declining to discount fees merely because plaintiff did not obtain all disputed records.

Yassein v. El Paso Intelligence Ctr. (S.D. Cal.) -- dismissing case because plaintiff did not reasonably describe records sought from Drug Enforcement Administration and agency made good faith attempt to seek clarification, which plaintiff ignored.
