What the committee held

  • The first order issued under the provision.
  • The committee weighed request volume, confusing and duplicative formatting, and a pattern of appealing fee decisions then withdrawing near the hearing.
  • It declined to credit the agency's evidence of hostile communications, which rested on uncorroborated testimony.
  • Seven months granted rather than the twelve requested.
