Federal Judge's Order Influences Upcoming Presidential Election

A federal judge in Washington this week speeded up the timetable for the release of documents involving presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's use of her private email for classified government messages while she was Secretary of State.

Originally, U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg ordered the Justice Department to begin releasing the documents in batches beginning Oct. 14. This week, the judge ordered the Justice Department to return to court Sept. 22 with a new plan.

The new plan is expected to require earlier release of the documents to conservative advocacy organization Judicial Watch, which filed a public records lawsuit against the Justice Department.

The lawsuit continues to influence the presidential election, where Clinton's Republican opponents are accusing her of deceit and violating federal laws that forbids use of private email for official classified government business.

The latest accusations stem from a new announcement by the FBI that its agents found an additional 14,900 documents in Clinton's computer servers that were not disclosed previously.

Boasberg's order this week follows a separate court order last week by a different federal judge.

United States
U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan ordered a senior aide to Clinton to give a deposition about the former secretary of state's email habits on Oct. 31, about a week before the presidential election.

The State Department aide once told two subordinates not to question Clinton's use of her email.

Judge Sullivan gave Judicial Watch until Oct. 14 to submit questions for Clinton to answer. He gave Clinton until Nov. 14 to respond in writing.

He agreed with Clinton's lawyers that former high-ranking government officials should be required to give sworn testimony only in "exceptional circumstances."

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said, "The decision is a reminder that Hillary Clinton is not above the law."
