completeness of the challenged records, used to make an adverse determination against me, in

Act (PA), and its own policy statement.

3, Whether regulation that exempts the Bureau Of Prisons (BOP) from the provision of the Privacy Act

the provision creating the duty to accurately maintain records used in making adverse determinations
against me, as required by the relevant decisions of other Circuit, and this U.S. Supreme Court.

genuine disputed issues of dispositive material fact and a jury demand in this case.
