Mertes v. IRS (E.D. Cal.) -- ruling that agency’s full disclosure of Form 709 that plaintiff requested did not moot case because agency failed to process a related document (Form 706) and both forms constituted a single “record” under DOJ’s guidance.

Eddington v. DOD (D.D.C.) -- dismissing case after determining that plaintiff failed to rebut agency’s sworn declaration that it had not received any of fourteen requests reportedly sent by plaintiff via email.
