State Dept. agrees to release documents on Giuliani communications

The State Department has agreed to turn over a cache of records featuring communications from President Trump's personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, on matters related to Ukraine, according to a joint status report filed in court late Wednesday.
The agreement comes a little over a week after a federal judge ordered the State Department to begin turning over documents related to Giuliani's communications with top State officials.
The ruling came in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by American Oversight, an ethics watchdog group.
The judge ruled that the department had 30 days to turn over the documents, but that both parties needed to meet to narrow the scope of American Oversight's request.
