Susan B. Long and Philip H. Long v. Bureau of Economic Analysis, United States Department of Commerce

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

Decided July 16, 1981No. 81-3090PublishedCited by 67 opinions

1Per curiam

Ultimately at issue in this Freedom of Information Act case is whether the Bureau of Economic Analysis (“BEA”) is obligated to release to Susan and Philip Long certain computer tapes, now in the BEA’s posses sion, that were prepared by the Internal Revenue Service in connection with its Taxpayer Compliance Measurement Program (“TCMP”). On the basis of the record before us, we affirm the district court’s rulings that FOIA’s Exemption 3 did not bar disclosure and that the BEA was not entitled subsequently to amend its answer to assert additional defenses to disclosure.
