EPIC Carnivore Case Moves Forward

EPIC has succeeded in its effort to compel the FBI to conduct a more complete search for documents concerning the Carnivore Internet surveillance system. U.S. District Judge James Robertson issued an order on March 25 in EPIC's FOIA lawsuit directing the Bureau to initiate a new search for responsive documents. The search must be conducted in the FBI's offices of General Counsel and Congressional & Public Affairs, and be completed no later than May 24, 2002.
