DoD IG Signals Shift in FOIA Policy
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 08.18.16
In June, the DoD IG announced that, "[i]n an effort to create greater transparency, DoD OIG will proactively redact and post reports and select administrative investigations," rather than requiring FOIA requests for them. Along with the recent amendments to FOIA, which require agencies to "make available for public inspection in an electronic format" records "that have been requested three or more times," the IG's decision is likely to increase the amount of information available to the public regarding IG reports, which in the past have included investigations of major defense programs.

Is Course Hero Heading to Summer School After Summary Judgment Loss?
On September 23, Judge Vernon D. Oliver partially granted and partially denied the defendant’s motion for summary judgment in Post University Inc. v. Learneo, Inc., 3:21-cv-1242 (VDO) (D. Del. Sept. 23, 2025). For background, the defendant in this case, Learneo, Inc. (commonly known as Course Hero), is an online platform for college, trade, and high school students that provides access to user-submitted documents via a paid subscription. Course Hero allows users to search the documents that have been uploaded by school, textbook, book title, and subject, but only users with a subscription can view the documents. Users without a subscription may access a preview version of the document, consisting of a blurred and truncated version created by Course Hero. Course Hero users have uploaded documents to the platform for many thousands of colleges, grad schools, high schools, and trade schools.
