Judge orders White House emails to be stored

The White House have been ordered by a federal Judge not to destroy any more back ups of emails, this is because there are some important emails missing from the backed up files, which relate to a two and half year period in the early days of the presidency.

The missing emails are from March 2003 to October 2005, but it is not a just a couple of emails that we are talking about here, it is estimated that there are around five million emails missing, by law these should have been saved.

This may not seem like a big deal, but five million missing emails could contain just few that are relevant about certain issues and so these few emails that have disappeared amongst five million, but as normal this will disappear as quickly as the emails did in the first place.
