Feds fight to prevent Clinton deposition in email case
[THEHILL] The B.O. regime is trying to prevent former Secretary of State  Hillary Clinton... sometimes described as The Heroine of Tuzlaand at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another George C. Marshall... from being deposed in an ongoing open records case connected to her use of a private email server. Birds of a feather... Late Thursday evening, the Justice Department filed a court motion opposing the Clinton deposition request from conservative legal watchdog Judicial Watch, claiming that the organization was trying to dramatically expand the scope of the lawsuit. Judicial Watch is "seeking instead to transform these proceedings into a wide-ranging inquiry into matters beyond the scope of the court’s order and unrelated to the FOIA request at issue in this case," government lawyers wrote in their filing, referring to the Freedom of Information Act. The lawyers wrote that the request to interview Clinton "is wholly inappropriate" before depositions are finished in a separate case also concerning the email server. Posted by: Fred 2016-05-29 |
