Rivera-Drew v. HHS

Topic(s): FOIA and Government Transparency
Citation: Case No. 09-296, U.S. District Court, D.C.
Date Of Involvement: 02/13/2009

Description:

We represent an attorney/researcher focusing on corporate accountability who filed a FOIA request with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seeking records filed by HCA, Inc. in compliance with reporting requirements under a Corporate Integrity Agreement. When more than a year had passed and HHS had produced only about 5% of the 72,000 pages of responsive records, we filed suit to compel the agency to comply with FOIA and produce the documents. On May 28, 2009, the defendant agreed to entry of a scheduling order to govern the production of the remaining documents.

Because Public Citizen does not accept funds from corporations, professional associations or government agencies, we can remain independent and follow the truth wherever it may lead. But that means we depend on the generosity of concerned citizens like you for the resources to fight on behalf of the public interest. If you would like to help us in our fight, click here.
