Subject: Freedom of Information Request: Request for Processing Notes on NCIS F09-1286

Email

To Whom It May Concern:

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

All processing notes for FOIA request F-09-1286, filed in 2009, according to FOIA logs released to the public. A copy of those logs is appended to this request. By asking for "processing notes," I request all materials related to the aforementioned FOIA request, which itself was in reference to the suicide of "Abdul Rahm Maalba al-Amry," also known as Abdul Rahman al Amri or Al Umari or Guantanamo Detainee 199. The request includes any material related to this request which contains remarks, comments, notes, explanations, etc. made by NCIS personnel about the processing of this request (and appeals, if appropriate), the invocation of exemptions, or related matters. This is to include any analysts' notes made during the processing of the requests, any standard worksheets completed by the analysts, any justifications for exemption invocations or other supporting documentation provided to the Appeals Authority, and any correspondence referencing the requests, including tasking orders, emails, and coordination documentation.

I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.

In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Jeffrey Kaye
