State Department officials withheld dozens of documents related to the unusual employment status of Huma Abedin, a former aide to Hillary Clinton who held two separate jobs in addition to her government position during Clinton’s tenure.

Despite a court order requiring the agency to hand over 68 pages of records to the Associated Press by Tuesday, the State Department delivered just seven pages to the news outlet in its response to its pending Freedom of Information Act lawsuit.
