(Via The Hill) A federal judge has rejected the State Department’s proposal to not release thousands of pages of emails from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton until next year, instead calling for them to be released on a rolling basis.

[…]  Jeffrey Light, the lawyer for Vice News, which filed the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit for the emails, said the judge had given the Obama administration one week to provide a schedule for the public release of all the emails, including those pertaining to Benghazi, Reuters reported.
The State Department had proposed releasing the emails sometime before Jan. 15, 2016, in court documents filed Monday night.
Those emails, which were submitted to the State Department in paper form, will be viewable in redacted form on the department’s website, according to John F. Hackett, who handles FOIA requests for State.
In March, then-State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said it would take “several months” to review the emails. A smaller batch of emails totaling 900 pages relating to the investigation into the Benghazi attacks would be released sooner, she said.
Clinton acknowledged earlier this year using private email for official business during her four years as secretary of State, 2009-2013.  (read more)
