日米合同委員会議事録情報公開訴訟【アーカイブケース】 Japan-US Joint Committee Minutes Information Disclosure Proceedings [Archive Case]
日米合同委員会の議事録非公開の根拠とされる日米双方の合意により非公表とするとの取り決めについて、情報公開請求で不開示となったため提訴しましたが、のちに取り決め部分は国が別訴訟で証拠提出して公開状態になっていたことが判明しました。そこで、当初の不開示決定が違法であるとして国家賠償請求に変更して争った事件です。

Regarding the agreement that the minutes of the Japan-US Joint Committee will not be disclosed due to the agreement between Japan and the United States, which is the basis for non-disclosure, a lawsuit was filed because it was not disclosed in the information disclosure request, but the government later filed a lawsuit. It turned out that the evidence was submitted in another lawsuit and was in a public state. Therefore, it was a case in which the initial non-disclosure decision was changed to a national compensation claim because it was illegal.
