FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Reginald J. Haley, haleyr@lsc.gov, (202)
295–1545.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
response to recent requests, LSC is
extending the comment period for
changes proposed for grant assurances
10 and 11. The deadline for comments
regarding proposed changes to all other
grant assurances remains May 30, 2014.
Grant Assurance #10 requires LSC
recipients to give LSC and the U.S.
Comptroller General access to records
they are entitled to under the provisions
of the LSC Act and other applicable law.
The proposed change to the grant
assurance requires LSC recipients to
provide access to records in accordance
with Federal law.
Grant Assurance #11 requires LSC
recipients to provide LSC, federal
agencies, and other auditing or
monitoring entities access to financial
records, time records, retainer
agreements, client trust fund and
eligibility records, and client names. As
with Grant Assurance #10, the proposed
change to the grant assurance requires
LSC recipients to provide access to
these records in accordance with
Federal law.
As part of the grant certifications, LSC
has required since 2009 that all
applicants for funding consent to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S.
District Court for the District of

Columbia, which is within the D.C.
Circuit. The proposed revisions to Grant
Assurances 10 and 11 are based on the
decision of the United States Court of
Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit in United States v. California
Rural Legal Assistance, 722 F.3d 424
(D.C. Cir. 2013), which involved an
action to enforce a subpoena for
documents held by an LSC recipient.
The question before the court was
‘‘whether, and[,] if so, which[,]
California state privileges and
protections apply.’’ Id. at 427. The court
decided that ‘‘the answer to the
‘whether’ issue is ‘no’. . . .’’ Id. The
decision was based entirely on federal
law; the court found it unnecessary to
consider the nature and extent of the
California laws and rules on privileges
and protections. The DC Circuit held
that ‘‘[f]ederal law and not state law
governs.’’ Id.
Under the court’s decision, the laws
and rules of other states are similarly
inapplicable. The court specifically
considered the LSC Act and concluded
that ‘‘Congress has made abundantly
clear its intention to regulate the federal
programs funded through LSC according
to federal and not California standards.’’
Id. at 428.
Dated: May 23, 2014.

Assistant General Counsel.
