He writes: "This case is of interest because many opponents of large projects file FOIL requests in an effort to uncover evidence which may derail such projects. This decision found that some of the government agency's objections were over broad and inconsistent with the language and intent of the FOIL statute."

In May 2023, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit set aside the convictions of two individuals in the government's high-profile "Varsity Blues" prosecution of fraud and bribery in the college admissions process.
