According to the Salt Lake Tribune, The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals has rejected the government's bid to overturn the Court's decision in a FOIA case brought by Jessie Trentadue. the government argued that the order will violate the privacy of lower-level government employees and allow Trentadue to engage in unwarranted "fishing expeditions." The suit seeks documents held by the President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency, an agency that investigates allegations of wrongdoing by federal law enforcement officers. A Utah federal district Judge upheld the government's denial of records, but a three-judge panel of the 10th Circuit ruled in September that most of the information must be disclosed.
