DAILY BEAST SUES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE OVER NUNES MEMO

The Daily Beast has filed a lawsuit against the Department of Justice for
multiple alleged violations of the nation’s privacy laws.

Filed on behalf of the media outlet by attorneys with the James Madison Project,
the nine-page complaint alleges the U.S. Department of Justice unlawfully failed
to respond to various Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests filed by The
Daily Beast’s Noah Schachtman and Betsy Woodruff.

The lawsuit is based on four distinct FOIA requests filed March 15,
2018. According to the lawsuit, a copy of which has been obtained by Law&Crime,
the initial requests asked for:

> [C]opies of records, including cross-references, memorializing the following:
> 1) the classification or declassification review of information contained
> within the Nunes Memo. This would include, but not be limited to,
> communications within DOJ or with other Executive Branch agencies, Members of
> Congress, Congressional Committees or the White House; and,
> 2) the classification or declassification review of information contained
> within the Schiff Memo. This would include, but not be limited to,
> communications within DOJ or with other Executive Branch agencies, Members of
> Congress, Congressional Committees or the White House.

The lawsuit notes that each of those four requests were directed to the
following groupings of federal agencies under the purview of the Department of
Justice: (1) the Offices of the Attorney General, the Deputy Attorney General,
and the Associate Attorney General; (2) the DOJ’s Office of Legislative Affairs;
(3) the DOJ’s National Security Division; and (4) the FBI.

Under current FOIA law, federal agencies are required to respond to expedited
FOIA requests “within 10 days after the date of the request.” The lawsuit claims
this mandated timeline for each request tolled on March 28 and that, to date,
the petitioners have yet to receive any form of “substantive response.”

In a statement provided to Law&Crime, attorney Bradley P. Moss said:



> The publication of the Nunes Memo was unprecedented in its defiance of
> classification concerns and the ability of a Congressional committee to pit
> the President against his own Justice Department. This lawsuit will seek to
> shed light on how exactly DOJ coordinated with both the White House and
> Congress in conducting its original review of the Nunes Memo, as well as
> providing the “technical assistance” President Trump ordered regarding review
> of the subsequent Schiff Memo

Mark Zaid is another attorney working on the lawsuit. In an email, he said, “The
manner in which the ‘Nunes’ and ‘Schiff’ FISA memos were declassified and
released were completely out of the norm. That the WH and HPSCI politicized the
intelligence process, over DOJ/FBI objections, is even worse. This lawsuit seeks
to reveal what happened beyond the scenes.”

The James Madison Project has been busy as of late. On March 20, the group sent
a letter demanding President Donald Trump declassify the entirety of the Carter
Page FISA warrant.
