MILNER V. DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
131 S.Ct. 1259 (2011)
NATURE OF THE CASE: Milner (P) appealed from a grant and affirmation of summary judgment
related to P’s FOIA request concerning ESQD information.
FACTS: Milner (P), a Puget Sound resident, submitted FOIA requests for all ESQD
information relating to Indian Island. The Navy (D) refused to release the data, stating
that disclosure would threaten the security of the base and surrounding community. D invoked
Exemption 2. The District Court granted summary judgment to D, and the Court of Appeals
affirmed. The Court of Appeals explained that the ESQD information 'is predominantly used
for the internal purpose of instructing agency personnel on how to do their jobs.'
