ORDER RE WITHHELD
DOCUMENTS

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND
SECURITY, et al.,
Defendant.
/

15
16

Plaintiff’s pending motion to compel production of documents (Dkt. No. 515) raises

17

questions regarding what evidence the government intends to rely on at summary judgment and

18

at trial. The Court is of the view that the government may not rely in any way upon any

19

information it has refused to turn over to plaintiff in response to a reasonable request. The

20

government shall file a submission stating whether it agrees with or objects to this principle by

21

SEPTEMBER 17 AT NOON. Although this principle applies across the board, the government

22

should also specifically address the question as it pertains to plaintiff’s arguments in favor of

23

compelling production of TSC UNCLASS PRIV ID 07 (TSC 2013.09.11 000001-72).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
