    DEFENDANT’S RESPONSE TO PLAINTIFFS’ NOTICE OF FACTUAL


    DEVELOPMENTS RELEVANT TO PENDING MOTIONS

    On May 4, 2020, Plaintiffs Electronic Privacy Information Center (“EPIC”), Jason

    Leopold, and Buzzfeed, Inc., filed a Notice of Factual Developments Relevant to Pending Motions,

    in which they informed the Court of events occurring in the Roger Stone criminal matter and

    argued that those events affect the applicability of certain exemptions under the Freedom of

    Information Act (“FOIA”) to material related to Mr. Stone in the Report On The Investigation Into

    Russian Inference In The 2016 Presidential Election (“Mueller Report”). Dkt. 119. On June 1,

    2020, the Court issued a Minute Order directing Defendant to file a response to Plaintiffs’ Notice

    1
    Case 1:19-cv-00810-RBW Document 121 Filed 06/12/20 Page 2 of 3

    by June 12, 2020.

    Following the sentencing of Mr. Stone and the lifting of the media communications order

    in United States v. Roger Stone, Jr., Crim. Action No. 19-18, the Department of Justice’s Office

    of Information Policy (OIP) concluded that reprocessing the Mueller Report is appropriate. The

    Office of Information Policy is in the process of reevaluating whether the redactions under FOIA

    Exemptions 6, 7(A), 7(B), and 7(C) for material related to Mr. Stone in the Mueller Report remain

    applicable. The Office of Information Policy anticipates that its review will be completed and, if

    appropriate, an updated version of the Mueller Report will be posted in OIP’s online FOIA Library

    no later than Friday, June 19, 2020. Defendant will also file a notice on the docket once

    reprocessing is complete.

    Dated: June 12, 2020 Respectfully submitted,
