~WRD018
From: Federal Bureau of Investigation
The request has been rejected, with the agency stating that the information or document(s) requested are exempt from disclosure.
From: Martin Peck
Claiming sensitivity for processing notes associated with a request is unsupported by precedent and law. I appeal this denial and demand release of the requested documents in full.
Consider the following affirmation by U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss:
"In rejecting the government's reliance on the "possible presence" of harm, Moss pointed to recent Supreme Court precedent warning "against permitting even substantial policy considerations to trump the plain language of the FOIA."
"There may be compelling reasons to authorize the FBI to withhold search slips and similar processing records," Moss wrote. "But the FOIA itself does not do so, and the FBI cannot act on the basis of an exemption ... that Congress has not provided."

Dear Sirs:
Regarding the final disposition erroneously claimed in DOJ-AP-2016-003915: please observe the response to this appeal was devoid of any meaningful information regarding the justification for upholding a spurious claim to sensitivity or properly afforded protections in law.
I demand appeal or at minimum proper justification of this incompetent disposition.
