Court Rules President May Classify Papers In FOIA Case
The Supreme Court in a 5 to 3 decision upheld executive secrecy under the Freedom of Information Act regarding classified documents. Justices stressed no judicial review exists for executive classifications when national defense or foreign policy is involved, while a dissent warned against excessive non review. The ruling addresses whether a judge may privately inspect documents to test exemptions and keeps government records secret in certain security contexts.
