National Commission on Law Enforcement and Social Justice v. Central Intelligence Agency

EUGENE A. WRIGHT, Circuit Judge: This appeal arises under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552 et seq. The National Commission on Law Enforcement and Social Justice (NCLE) has appealed from the district court's summary judgment that records withheld from it by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) are exempt from disclosure under the Act's Exemptions One and Three, 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(1) and (3). We conclude that the requested materials are specifically exempted from disclosure by Exemption Three as triggered by the statutes which specifically exempt disclosure, 50 U.S.C. §§ 403(d)(3) and 403g.
