As the monumental case titled In Re Terrorist Attacks on September 11, 2001 plods on toward a judge’s decisive ruling on whether Saudi Arabia should be dismissed as a defendant, lawyers on both sides are in a slugfest over what evidence the public should get to see.

At the same time, lawyers for the 9/11 survivors and families of the nearly 3,000 dead and 25,000 injured have once again accused the FBI of foot-dragging in response to judicial orders that it “make a compelling showing” to justify its document sealings and redactions of personal identifying information and other material.
