MINUTE ORDER (paperless) DISMISSING this application in light of the D.C. Court of Appeals' 37 Mandate vacating this Court's 28 Order following the Circuit's holding in McKeever v. Barr, 920 F.3d 842, 850 (D.C. Cir. 2019) (holding that a "district court has no authority outside Rule 6(e) to disclose grand jury matter"). That mandate remanded this case to "the district court to consider in the first instance whether disclosure of" the materials at issue "is otherwise appropriate notwithstanding McKeever" and quoted the Circuit's opinion in In re Grand Jury Subpoena, Judith Miller, 493 F.3d 152 (D.C. Cir. 2007), which explained that "when once-secret grand jury material becomes sufficiently widely known, it may lose its character as Rule 6(e) material." Id. at 154 (internal quotation marks and alteration omitted). At issue on remand, then, is whether this Court's ordered release of "(1) information about the number of White House employees who were interviewed by the [Office of the Independent Counsel] or who appeared as witnesses before the grand jury" and "(2) limited information pertaining to subpoenas issued by the Independent Counsel" remains proper. 38 Joint Status Report ("JSR") at 6. Arguing in the affirmative, CNN highlights that the Circuit in Judith Miller had directed the Special Counsel to file an affidavit "identifying those portions of his sealed ex parte affidavits discussing grand jury matters that have become widely known through whatever source... and can therefore be released." Judith Miller, 493 F.3d at 155 (emphasis added). Throughout this case, the Department of Justice ("DOJ") has agreed to the release of large portions of the requested materials, explaining at the time that "[t]o the extent the government [did] not object[] to unsealing, it [was] because the information at issue [was] already in the public domain by virtue of the Independent Counsel's court-authorized submission to the House of Representatives." JSR at 5. CNN plausibly read DOJ's representations as an admission that DOJ restricted its assessment of the dockets at issue "solely to whether sealed information had been made public 'by virtue of the Independent Counsel's court-authorized submission to the House of Representatives.'" JSR at 3. CNN now wants to ensure that DOJ undertook the broader inquiry of whether materials in those dockets "have become widely known through whatever source." Judith Miller, 493 F.3d at 155. DOJ has, however, already done that, as its previous review "us[ed] ordinary search engines to determine whether information was generally public," and determined that the "exact information" in question was not "in the public domain." JSR at 7. Further submissions are thus unnecessary. The Clerk of the Court is therefore DIRECTED to close this case. Signed by Chief Judge Beryl A. Howell on May 26, 2020. (lcbah4)
