US State Dept. tells court it needs 5 years to review 31,000 Hillary emails recovered by FBI including 2100 deleted or withheld by her legal team-Nov. 7, 2016

.
11/7/16, "State Department tells court it needs 5 years to review deleted Clinton emails," Washington Examiner, Sarah Westwood

"State Department officials asked a federal court Monday to consider allowing them up to five years for their review of 31,000 pages of emails recovered by the FBI during its year-long investigation of Hillary Clinton.

During the same hearing, the State Department admitted that the FBI provided 2,100 emails from Clinton's server that her legal team either deleted or withheld

The updates came from a Freedom of Information Act hearing Monday in a lawsuit filed by conservative-leaning Judicial Watch.

Tom Fitton, the group's president, announced on social media that State Department officials said they knew nothing of the emails related to Clinton and one of her top aides, Huma Abedin, that triggered a second FBI investigation into the former secretary of state's communications.

FBI Director James Comey said Sunday that the bureau had not changed its position upon completion of the probe."
