Group that filed a Freedom of Information Act request in November says in its lawsuit that is has “exhausted all administrative remedies.”
By Rachel Weiner Rachel Weiner Local reporter covering federal court in Alexandria, Va. and local court in Arlington and Alexandria. Email Bio Follow March 23 at 11:41 AM A privacy watchdog has filed suit in Washington federal court for the full release of the report special counsel Robert S. Mueller III delivered Friday on his investigation into whether the Trump campaign coordinated with the Kremlin in the 2016 presidential race.
Attorney General William P. Barr plans to make the “principal conclusions” public as soon as this weekend, he said in a letter to lawmakers. But he has not indicated how much he plans to reveal of the 22-month probe that ended with criminal charges against 34 people, including six former Trump associates and advisers.
Because the Justice Department has not yet responded to the group’s appeal of that decision, EPIC argues in its lawsuit that it has “exhausted all administrative remedies.”
