From: Andrew Free
I have provided you a link to the specific source of records I seek. I am not required by ICE’s regulations to identify a contract number. Nor will I. You, on the other hand, are required to conduct a good-faith, timely search with the strong presumption in favor of disclosure wherever ambiguity exists. The timing and content of your follow-up is evidence you are violating these statutory and regulatory obligations. Consequently, if you fail to conduct a search based on my failure to identify a contract number, I intend to seek referral of this matter to the Office of Special Counsel and report your office’s illegality to relevant oversight committees in Congress.
Please cease your office’s ongoing lawbreaking. Conduct an adequate search and release all non-exempt portions of responsive records without further delay.
Thank you,
Andrew

We appeal the agency’s denial of this request.
