WASHINGTON, Sept. 25 (UPI) -- The Justice Department asked for the dismissal of a suit filed by a Florida socialite whose complaints about emails led to the resignation of the CIA director.
In June, Jill Kelley and her husband, Dr. Scott Kelley, filed their lawsuit against the FBI, the Defense Department and unnamed federal agents, claiming a violation of privacy because the defendants accessed private emails against their wishes. The Kelleys, who live in Tampa, Fla., also claim government officials wrongfully disclosed Jill Kelley's name.
