Because of the number of judges hearing the FOIA cases, there is likewise a chance that the fight over Hillary Clinton's emails could "take on a life of their own," not ending "until there are endless depositions of top [agency] aides and officials, and just a parade of horribles," said Anne Weismann, executive director of the Campaign for Accountability. Weismann also is a former Justice Department FOIA litigation supervisor who oversaw dozens of such fights from 1991 to 2002.
