Centrum Stosunków Międzynarodowych - 23 August 2016: State Department orders new 15 000 emails to review

The State Department was directed to assess 14,900 documents it received from the FBI as part of the investigation into Clinton's use of her private email server while she was secretary of state, determine a plan to release the documents and report back to the court September 23. On the 23rd of September a hearing when these emails might be released and a deadline that raises the possibility some will become public before the Nov. 8 presidential election between Democrat Clinton and her Republican rival, Donald Trump.

State Department spokesman Mark Toner told reporters it was still reviewing the 14,900 documents and it was unclear how many were personal or work-related. He also said it was unclear how many may duplicate those already released but that there were "likely to be quite a few" not previously disclosed.

Toner said the State Department believed there was "no impropriety" in foundation officials seeking to meet Clinton, saying any secretary of state or aides get such requests from a wide range of people.

The 14,900 documents referred to by Boasberg are believed to include emails not included among those Clinton previously turned over to the State Department after her use of a private email server and private email account became public.

Recently, Judicial Watch group released 296 pages of Clintons’ emails which demonstrated efforts by the Clinton family foundation to leverage its influence with Mrs. Clinton.
