Comey ordered to preserve his government documents

The Department of Justice has ordered former FBI Director James B. Comey to preserve any government records in his possession, a watchdog group says.

The order covers such documents as memos he wrote for the record on his private meetings with President Trumpand possibly with former President Barack Obama.

The Justice Department disclosed the Comey written notification last week to Judicial Watch, just as the conservative group was seeking a judge’s order to ensure all of the ex-director’s government documents were preserved and not destroyed.

Mr. Comey wrote memos on his laptop and also used a personal Gmail account for FBI business — a practice that the inspector general said violated Justice Department guidelines.

Judicial Watch is suing the Justice Department in U.S. District Court under the Freedom of Information Act. Teamed with the Daily Caller News Foundation, the two want Mr. Comey’s memos on his meetings with Mr. ObamaMr. Trump and congressional leaders.
