DoJ “FOIA Post” Demonstrates Continued Policy To Disclose Unit Pricing
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 10.10.05
On September 8, 2005, the Department of Justice issued a “FOIA Post” memorandum (http://www.usdoj.gov/oip/foiapost/2005foiapost17.htm) reflecting on last year's decision by the D.C. Circuit in McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. U.S. Dep't of the Air Force, 375 F.3d 1182, in which the court rejected DOJ's efforts to have the contractor's unit prices released. The “FOIA Post” discusses various ways that agencies can distinguish that decision in favor of disclosure of unit-price information and advises agencies to look to Fourth and Ninth Circuit decisions which supported the disclosure of unit prices.

DOJ Promises NPAs to Certain Individuals Through New Voluntary Self-Disclosure Pilot Program
On April 15, 2024, the Acting Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division of the Department of Justice (“DOJ”) Nicole Argentieri announced a new Pilot Program on Voluntary Self-Disclosure for Individuals (“Pilot Program” or “Program”). The Pilot Program offers a clear path for voluntary self-disclosure by certain corporate executives and other individuals who are themselves involved in misconduct by corporations, in exchange for a Non-Prosecution Agreement (“NPA”). The Pilot Program specifically targets individuals who disclose to the Criminal Division at DOJ in Washington, D.C. information about certain corporate criminal conduct. By carving out a clear path to non-prosecution for those who qualify, DOJ has created another tool to uncover complex crimes that might not otherwise be reported to the Department.
