(INAF/OAS-Bologna), M. Pilia (INAF/OA-Cagliari), F. Longo (Univ.
Trieste, and INFN Trieste) report on behalf of the AGILE Team:

In response to the LIGO/Virgo GW event S200114f at T0 = 2020-01-14
02:08:18.2393 (UT), a preliminary analysis of the AGILE minicalorimeter (MCAL)
and GRID data found no acquisitions around T0, due to a complete Earth
occultation of the S200114f 90% c.l. localization region.

Additional analysis of AGILE data is in progress.
