Re:  Plaintiff’s complaint stating that “he needs ‘to see’ an unredacted ‘record of homeland security spending’”

Disposition:  Granting defendant’s motion to dismiss

  • Litigation Considerations, Pleadings:  The court relates that “[t]here is no allegation that [plaintiff] made a records request to the defendant, nor any allegation that Homeland Security denied a request.”  “Because [plaintiff] does not allege that he made a request that was denied by Homeland Security, the Court lacks jurisdiction over his FOIA claim.”
