Re: Your Freedom of Information Act Request to the Federal Election
Commission (FOIA 2014-39)
Dear Mr. Carter:
This letter responds to your request for information from the Federal
Election Commission (FEC) under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA),
dated and received by the FEC?s FOIA Requester Service Center April 7,
2014. You requested:
All current contracts that the Federal Elections Commission has for online
legal research, and/or information services, with LexisNexis and Accurint;
and, all purchase orders, delivery orders, and/or any modifications or
amendments issued to LexisNexis for online legal research and/or
information services, from July 2013 until the date this request begins to
be processed.
The FEC does not have any current contracts for online legal research
and/or information services with LexisNexis or Accurint, nor has the
Agency had any such contracts during the period from July 2013 to present.
Accordingly, we do not have documents responsive to your request, and are
denying the request.
You may appeal any adverse FOIA determination. Any such appeal must be
filed in writing and should follow the guidelines set forth in 11 C.F.R. ยง
4.8. If you have any questions, please contact the FOIA Requester Service
