MINUTE ORDER: The court has considered the arguments raised in Plaintiffs' motion 52 to compel production of documents, Defendants' response 57, Plaintiffs' reply 60, and in the March 14, 2019 teleconference. Under 8 U.S.C. § 1202(f), with some exceptions, "records of the Department of State and of diplomatic and consular offices of the United States pertaining to the issuance or refusal of visas or permits to enter the United States shall be considered confidential and shall be used only for the formulation, amendment, administration, or enforcement of the immigration, nationality, and other laws of the United States." The court agrees with Defendants that the scope of the statute "is not limited to information supplied by the visa applicant, it includes information revealing the thought-processes of those who rule on the application." Medina-Hincapie v. Dep't of State, 700 F.2d 737, 744 (D.C. Cir. 1983). However, the court disagrees with Defendants' assertion that the dates decisions were made "are inextricably tied to the thought-processes and decisions required to determine whether an alien meets the statutory requirements for an SIV." (Defs.' Resp. at 4.) The dates will show only the pace at which an application is processed and where an application is in the process. As in a privilege log, the dates at issue here will shed no light on a reviewer's thought-process or decision-making. In addition, the dates will be associated only with an anonymized, unique identifier; they will not be associated with an applicant's name. Moreover, dates are not included in the definition of "record" provided in Defendant State's Foreign Affairs Manual. See 9 FAM 603.12(b). Accordingly, Plaintiffs' motion 52 to compel production of documents is GRANTED. No certificate of appealability will issue because Defendants' cursory request does not meet their "burden of showing that exceptional circumstances justify a departure from the basic policy of postponing appellate review until after the entry of a final judgment." Virtual Def. & Dev. Int'l, Inc. v. Republic of Moldova, 133 F. Supp. 2d 9, 22 (D.D.C. 2001). Signed by Judge Tanya S. Chutkan on 4/11/2019. (lctsc1)
