A no responsive documents response.

From: Michael Best

In addition to the CRS search, I am requesting a cross-reference search and an ELSUR search.

Thank you.

From: Michael Best

I am appealing the integrity of the search. FOIA case law establishes that agencies must search all systems and records that could contain responsive documents. No search was done of the Electronic Surveillance (ELSUR) Indices, the Microphone Surveillance (MISUR) Indices, the Physical Surveillance (FISUR) Indices, and the Technical Surveillance (TESUR) Indices, nor was a search done for cross-reference records.
