White House given 3 days to comply with e-mail inquiry.

Federal judge John M. Facciola ruled today that the “White House has three days to explain why it shouldn’t be required to copy its computer hard drives to ensure no further e-mails are lost.” In January, Facciola issued a similar five-day deadline for the White House to report whether computer backup tapes had any of the missing e-mails from 2003-2005. There are potentially more than 5 million missing emails.
