The Blog of the Legal Times reports that the District of Columbia Court of Appeals has issued an opinion setting forth guidelines for when attorney fees may be granted in D.C. FOIA litigation. D.C. FOIA follows case precedent from the federal FOIA when there is no specific rulings on point in D.C. and that is largely what the court did in this instance.
