State Dept. to Fall Short of Court Order on Clinton Email Release

By Published on December 31, 2015

State Department officials will fall short of a court order compelling them to produce nearly 9,000 pages of Hillary Clinton’s private emails by the end of December.

Instead, the agency will publish 5,500 pages of Clinton’s emails Thursday and make another production of emails “sometime next week,” State Department officials said Thursday morning.

“We have worked diligently to come as close to the goal as possible, but with the large number of documents involved and the holiday schedule we have not met the goal this month,” the agency said in a statement.

The shortcoming is not the first time the agency has failed to meet a court-ordered benchmark for the production of Clinton’s emails. The State Department fell short of its goal in July before ramping up efforts to screen the former secretary of state’s records.
