Good afternoon Mr. Best,

Reference is made to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request 1361244-000 for FBI records concerning Janet Reno. The FBI has located approximately 20,000 pages that are potentially responsive to your request. Once requests go over a certain size, usually in the 50-100 page range, they become increasingly complex, greatly slowing down the time required for processing. Generally the larger the file, the longer it takes to process. Given our current workload and staffing levels, it may be a very long time before you would begin to receive material from this request.

We contact requesters with requests of this size to see if there might be a way to possibly narrow the scope. Is this something you might be willing to consider? If so, please contact me and we can discuss this possibility. We appreciate your patience and hope to hear from you soon.

Good morning Emma,

Thank you for responding to my inquiry. I do need some clarification from you. Are you handling all interests of Michael Best? Has Mr. Best provided us this information that he is no longer handling his requests? To go forward, I do need your full name and address to ensure correspondence will be going out correctly to you; and I would appreciate some notice from Mr. Best.
Thanks,
Leslie Wilson

Good morning Ms. Best,

I have gone through the files for Janet Reno. The only file pertaining to your interest as noted below is the congressional background file which consists of 3 sections. The size is estimated to be under 900 pages. If you are interested in this one file being processed through the medium-track queue, the current estimated processing time is about 7 months.

Please let me know if this will meet your needs on this subject.

Respectfully,
Leslie Wilson

Ms. Best,

This is a follow up to the size of the one congressional background file on Janet Reno. The sections were uploaded and did not reflect the average size we estimate for sections. So upon reviewing the sections, the actual page count is at 2,239. This size will still keep your request in the large-track queue.

I do appreciate your consideration in reducing the scope of your request. Please do confirm if you still want me to proceed with the processing of this file so that I may move it forward.

Sincerely,
Leslie Wilson

Good morning,

I did move your case forward for all of the material under your interest for the security/background file on Janet Reno. The other files we eliminated pertained to assault on a federal officer, extortion overt and threats against president/staff, and gen/admin matters.
So we are not reducing the one file to fit into the medium track queue. You will want all 2,239 to be processed.
Hopefully I have not caused confusion with this.
Thanks,
Leslie Wilson

Estimated Dates of Completion:

Requests are processed in the order in which they are received through our multi-track processing system, and the FBI receives a voluminous amount of requests on a daily, weekly, monthly, and annual basis. Requests are divided into two primary tracks--simple (under 50 pages of potentially responsive documents) and complex (over 50 pages of potentially responsive documents). Our complex requests are further divided into medium, large, and extra-large sub-tracks. Simple track requests typically require the least amount of time to process.

Currently, simple track cases average approximately 80 days from the date of receipt for processing. Requests in the medium processing track are currently averaging 281 days from the date of receipt for processing, those in the large processing track are currently averaging approximately 774 days, and those in the extra-large track are averaging 879 days.

Good morning,

As you are aware you can check on the status of your request via the portal at FBI.gov. Through negotiations, the size of the request was reduced but still remained a large size case. Upon conclusion of our discussions, the case was forwarded to the unassigned backlog for large cases. It will be picked up for processing as other large cases close.
Respectfully.
