Notice of Formal Determination on Records Release

Legal Status This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily
Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal
Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official
electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.

The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal
Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the
corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the
daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial
informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal
Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status.
For complete information about, and access to, our official publications
and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.

The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable
regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of
establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned
publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that
the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with
the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for
legal research should verify their results against an official edition of
the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML
rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not
provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

Civil Rights Cold Case Records Review Board

1. [Agency Docket Number: CRCCRRB-2026-0009-N]

AGENCY:

Civil Rights Cold Case Records Review Board.

ACTION:

Notice.

SUMMARY:

The Civil Rights Cold Case Records Review Board received 2,883 pages of records from the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) related to three civil rights cold case incidents to which the Review Board assigned the unique identifiers 2024-003-020, 2024-003-037, and 2024-003-039. The Review Board previously issued its determinations on these records except for 18 proposed postponements of sealed federal grand jury information which required additional review and coordination with the agencies. On March 27, 2026, the Review Board met and decided to approve these postponements. It declined to request that the Attorney General petition the relevant court to unseal this information at this time though it may choose to do so in the future. The Review Board also received 1,197 pages of records from NARA related to another three civil rights cold case incidents to which the Review Board assigned the unique identifiers 2024-003-017, 2024-003-047, and 2024-004-001. NARA proposed 44 postponements including postponements of sealed federal grand jury information in the records. On March 27, 2026, the Review Board met and determined that 1,187 pages in full and 10 pages in part should be publicly disclosed in the Civil Rights Cold Case Records Collection. The Review Board will not request that the Attorney General petition the relevant court to unseal the federal grand jury information in these records at this time though it may choose to do so in the future. By issuing this notice, the Review Board complies with the Civil Rights Cold Case Records Collection Act of 2018 that requires the Review Board to publish in the Federal Register its determinations on the disclosure or postponement of records in the Collection no more than 14 days after the date of its decision.
