Re: Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552
Request No. 15-02013-FOIA
Dear Mr. Katz:
This letter responds to your request, dated and received in
this office on February 18, 2015, seeking all
investigativerecords related to pyramid schemes concerning
Herbalife Ltd.,
from January 1, 2014 to February 18, 2015.
We are withholding records that may be responsive to your
request under 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(7)(A), 17 C.F.R. § 200.80(b)
(7)(i). This exemption protects from disclosure records
compiled for law enforcement purposes, the release of which
could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement
activities. Since Exemption 7(A) protects the records from
disclosure, we have not determined if other exemptions
apply.
Therefore, we reserve the right to assert other exemptions
when
Exemption 7(A) no longer applies.
It is the general policy of the Commission to conduct its
investigations on a non-public basis. Thus, subject to the
provisions of FOIA, the Commission does not disclose the
existence or non-existence of an investigation or
information
gathered unless made a matter of public record in
proceedings
brought before the Commission or in the courts. Accordingly,
the assertion of this exemption should not be construed as
an
indication by the Commission or its staff that any violations
of
law have occurred with respect to any person, entity, or
security.
Because the underlying circumstances may change, we may
later disclose some of the exempt records. If you wish, you
may
request them again six months from the date of this letter.
