Problem:
AFL filed a FOIA request with the Department of Justice seeking records related to the Loudoun County Grand Jury investigation of a sexual assault at a Loudoun County School, and related to the arrest of the victim’s father who was angry with the school for failing to protect his daughter. The Department of Justice then estimated that the request would take more than nine months to process, which is in excess of the time provided by the FOIA.
Action:
AFL sued to enforce its FOIA request and shine a light on the way the Department of Justice has chosen to handle the situation surrounding Loudoun County Schools.
Result:
The case is currently being litigated.
