From: Shawn Musgrave

To Whom It May Concern:

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

All documents on, about or mentioning Lawrence Edward Walsh (January 8, 1912 – March 19, 2014). Proof of death is not required since Walsh's death has been widely reported.

From the Washington Post obituary (http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/lawrence-e-walsh-iran-contra-special-prosecutor-dies-at-102/2014/03/20/bf505f74-b04a-11e3-95e8-39bef8e9a48b_story.html): "Lawrence E. Walsh, a New York corporate lawyer with impeccable Republican credentials who as independent counsel prosecuted several key players in the Reagan-era Iran-contra scandal only to see the convictions overturned on appeal and many other officials pardoned, died March 19 at his home in Nichols Hills, Okla. He was 102."

This request encompasses both ELSUR (Electronic Surveillance) and Central Records indices, as well as both main file and cross-reference records.

I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.

In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Shawn Musgrave

Dear Ms. Musgrave:

I am writing on behalf of the Justice Management Division (JMD) of the
U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to acknowledge receipt of your Freedom
of Information (FOIA) request on 02/05/2016.

Your request was referred to JMD by the Federal Bureau of
