EPIC - Civil Action 06-00096 (HHK)
ACLU - Civil Action 06-00214 (HHK)
Footnote 1: After EPIC filed its motion for a preliminary 1 injunction, the court consolidated this case with American Civil Liberties Union, et al. v. Department of Justice, Civil Action No. 06-214. By that case, plaintiffs seek the release of records related to the NSAs secret surveillance program to intercept, without prior judicial authorization, the telephone and Internet communications of people inside the United States. Compl. ¶ 2.
This memorandum opinion is concerned solely with EPICs motion for a preliminary
injunction.
This order is for EPIC, true. But guess who gets their wish next. Three guesses and the first two don't count.
