This case should
provide the Supreme Court with an excellent opportunity to apply and further
expound upon the law enforcement-protection principles that it established for
Exemption 7(A) nearly twenty-five years ago in NLRB v. Robbins Tire & Rubber
Co., 437 U.S. 214 (1978), and the privacy-protection principles that it
established for both Exemption 6 and Exemption 7(C) more than a dozen years
ago in United States Department of Justice v. Reporters Committee for Freedom
of the Press, 489 U.S. 749 (1989). (posted 11/22/02)
