To whom this may concern,

I am writing in regards to my FOIA request CRM-301705578, sent March 15, 2022, concerning concerning emails sent to, from, or copied to former Criminal Division Deputy Assistant Attorney General Sigal Mandelker, from January 1, 2006, to January 1, 2010, containing the term “Epstein.”

According to the FOIA/PA unit's response email, sent April 11, 2022, "Criminal Division personnel searched the section most likely to maintain records and no responsive records subject to the FOIA were located. Email archives are not available for the identified time period."

I would like to appeal this determination on grounds that the search was insufficient. I am looking forwards to hearing your response at your earliest convenience.

Best regards,
Matthew Petti
