But the issue is FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) and that there are others involved who have requested the e-mails and the protocol for handling......not just Klayman, and the Judges decision reflects that these requests need to be honored to satisfy the People's Right to Know what their officials are doing when they conduct the People's Business.. If you read the WaPo article in the OP it does explain that FOIA requests must be honored and it seems he feels there have been too many delays and not complete compliance with former court orders..
