Dear FOIA Officer,

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552, I request access to and copies of the following records held by the U.S. Department of Justice — Criminal Division:

All non-exempt records — including correspondence, internal memoranda, referrals, declination memos, and case-opening or case-closing documents — concerning any investigation, declined investigation, or referral involving "Edmond de Rothschild Holding S.A." from January 2010 to the present.

I am requesting these records because: This request supports public-interest investigation of an oversight gap documented at https://goblinhouse.net/wall/enforcement-gap-edmond-de-rothschild-holding-s-a. The records sought relate to: No documented enforcement against Edmond de Rothschild Holding S.A..

Public-record evidence supporting the basis of this request is documented at: https://goblinhouse.net/wall/enforcement-gap-edmond-de-rothschild-holding-s-a

I request that the records be provided in electronic format if available.

FEE WAIVER REQUEST: I request a waiver of all fees pursuant to 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(A)(iii). Disclosure of the requested information is in the public interest because it is likely to contribute significantly to public understanding of the operations or activities of the government. The records concern matters of public concern, my use is non-commercial, and the information is not primarily in my commercial interest.

If my request is denied in whole or part, I ask that you justify all deletions by reference to specific exemptions of the FOIA. I expect you to release all segregable portions of otherwise exempt material.

I will look forward to receiving your response within 20 business days as required by 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(6)(A)(i).

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sincerely,
[Your name]
[Your address]
