United States Ninth Circuit
A Better Way for BPA v. US Department of Energy Bonneville Power Administration, 16-35414
Reversing a district court dismissal of a suit brought under the Freedom of Information Act by an environmental nonprofit organization alleging that the Department of Energy had failed to turn over documents requested by one of its members on behalf of the organization because the failure to adequately identify the organization found by the district court was contradicted by a common sense examination of the online form and any confusion was of the Department's own making and could be easily fixed.
