Re: Overdue request under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552

To Whom It May Concern:

On 2026-03-22 I submitted a records request under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552. The statutory response deadline of 2026-04-17 (5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(6)(A)(i)) has now passed and I have not received a determination.

I am writing to follow up and to request an immediate determination on this request.

Please treat this as a formal follow-up. I would appreciate a written response with a date certain for the determination, and I reserve all rights to further administrative and judicial remedies.

Thank you for your prompt attention.

Sincerely,
Kate Benediktsson
