Month: November 2023

bookmark_borderNovember FOIA Hearing

So this hearing didn’t get anywhere and was adjourned to January 18, 2024. They claim to need more time to sort through the documents. I agreed that they could limit their search to just e-mails (and their attachments). Then I filed a status update indicating that I’m not finished litigating the missing NIT Reports that the FBI supposedly cannot find (which is utter BS).

Also check out this gem, it indicates what I’d suspected all along. My FOIA results should blow the lid off this scandal, if they ever comply. (My motion to hurry them up was denied because I failed to show that time was important.) BLAH!

I’ve got a lot on my plate this month. My current habeas petition (Eighth Circuit Case No. 23-3131) should be “ripe” for decision after TODAY. The government’s argument against it this time is purely procedural. (They claim that the shill’s bombshell 2016 report isn’t “new” – I retort that it is when they concealed it from ‘me and my various attorneys’…)

The Government is supposed to have some answers regarding my FOIA lawsuit on November 9, 2023 and my adjudication as a “Tier 1” should hopefully occur at a hearing on the last day of the Month.

And the Second Circuit should set my “briefing schedule” for my appeal to them about the ridiculously punitive continuation of my supervised release…

Regardless, November 2023 is going to be a significant month for Kirk Cottom…
