United States v. Riese, No. 22-50136, 2024 WL 1585392 (D.S.D. Apr. 11, 2024) (Wollmann, Mag. J.)

Re:  Request for certain manuals and procedural documents, as well as for certain communications

Disposition:  Denying defendant’s motion

• Litigation Considerations, Jurisdiction:  The court relates that “[defendant] filed a pro se motion titled ‘Motion for FOIA (Freedom of Information)’ . . . .”  The court relates that “[defendant] failed to file a FOIA complaint in a separate civil action in order to confer jurisdiction.”  “Because [defendant] improperly demanded relief under FOIA in his criminal case, instead of filing a complaint in a separate civil action, his motion is denied.”
