FEDERAL COURT HEARING ON CLINTON EMAILS – JUDICIAL WATCH ASKING FOR DEPOSITION OF HILLARY CLINTON

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that a federal court ordered a hearing for Thursday, August 22, 2019, on the Clinton email issue. On December 6, 2018, U.S. District Court Judge Lamberth ordered Obama administration senior State Department officials, lawyers and Clinton aides to be deposed or answer written questions under oath. The court ruled that the Clinton email system was “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.”

The court ordered discovery into three specific areas: whether Secretary Clinton’s email use of a private email server was intended to stymie FOIA; whether the State Department’s intent to settle this case in late 2014 and early 2015 amounted to bad faith; and whether the State Department has adequately searched for records responsive to Judicial Watch’s request. Judicial Watch deposed nearly a dozen witnesses and will seek addition witnesses and documents from the court, including the deposition of Hillary Clinton and Cheryl Mills, her chief of staff at State and personal lawyer who directed the destruction of 33,000 State Department Clinton emails. Lawyers for Clinton and Mills are expected at the hearing Thursday.

The hearing and report were ordered in accordance with a July 2014 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit, which was filed after the U.S. Department of State failed to respond to a May 13, 2014, FOIA request (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:14-cv-01242)).

In initially granting Judicial Watch discovery, Judge Lamberth criticized the State and Justice Department for possible “bad faith” and “chicanery.”

  1. Let's hope justice will finally be served and crooked Hillary and her partner in crime Cheryl Mills are brought to bear. What they did is criminal period and they should face the consequences.

  3. As I always say, build the wall out of Hillary's emails because no one can seem to get over them.
    Yet no one bats an eye when Jared and Ivanka use their personal emails...

    Yeah, why would anyone have a problem w/classified info being readily available to anyone who hacked Hillary's computer? The other 2 used their personal e-mail very early on, & stopped when told not to ; I don't believe any classified docs were involved. Hillary knew better, was told not to, & may apparently have cc'd people in other countries on purpose! Selling national secrets? Yeah, that's the same thing.
