Guideline B
Guideline B – Foreign Influence
Case No.: 08-04597
San Jose, California
August 20, 2010
On August 20, 2010 The Edmunds Law Firm received written notification of a favorable decision made by the Administrative Judge in a security clearance matter. The hearing for this matter was held in San Jose, California on June 24, 2010. In this case, there were security concerns pertaining to Guideline B – Foreign Influence. The evidence showed that the Applicant’s brother was a citizen and resident of Afghanistan. The evidence also showed that the Applicant had traveled to Afghanistan in at least 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2004 which raised security clearance concerns. The Edmunds Law Firm was able to demonstrate through witness testimony and documentary evidence that the Applicant was trustworthy, and met the eligibility requirements for access to classified information. Upon consideration of the evidence presented, the Administrative Judge found that it was clearly consistent with the national interests to grant the Applicant’s security clearance.
“Thank you and your associates for all your legal advice and services throughout my challenges with DOHA and my efforts to obtain a security clearance. During the hearing.I could not have asked for a better attorney to present my case to [the] Judge.Your legal approach was strong, well prepared, and most professional. Please extend my gratitude to all members of your team. Thank you for a job well done.”
