Please include all available segregable data, including the entities involved, the date on which the initial complaint or court action was brought, the nature of the charge or complaint, the nature of the dispute resolution (i.e. in-court, out-of-court, in-agency mediation, third-party, etc.), any financial agreements associated with the settlement, and the date on which the case was closed.

Please provide all available materials from January 1, 2010 through October 31, 2017.

Dear Ms. Lipton,

I was recently made aware of your below FOIA request. As the FOIA Officer for the Executive Office of the Mayor (“EOM”), I only have the ability to conduct searches of and respond to requests for EOM records. EOM does not maintain records of settlements or court or legal proceedings. Given the nature of our request, you may wish to contact the Office of the Attorney General. Information on how to contact that agency can be found here: https://oag.dc.gov/about-oag/open-government-and-foia-oag

Best,
Erika
