Court opinion issued May 12, 2023
Lawyers’ Comm. for Civil Rights v. OMB (D.D.C.) -- on renewed summary judgment, ruling that OMB sufficiently established that it properly relied upon Exemption 5’s deliberative process privilege to withhold records concerning its decision to “halt its initiative for the collection of pay data from employers by the [EEOC]”; further finding that OMB satisfied the foreseeable harm standard by linking identifiable harms to specific information, and that it established that it produced all reasonably segregable information.
