Clemente v. FBI (D.C. Cir.) -- denying appellant's petition for rehearing en banc. Notably, Judge Kavanaugh stated in a concurring opinion that the Court’s "four-factor test for awarding attorney’s fees in FOIA cases is inconsistent with FOIA’s text and structure, and impermissibly favors some FOIA plaintiffs over other equally deserving FOIA plaintiffs. In an appropriate case, I believe that the en banc Court should re-examine and jettison that four-factor test."
