"It is still our
hope that they will see their way clear to complying with that
order as thousands of other companies do every day," Lynch said
in an interview with Fox News.
Asked about the FBI's investigation into Hillary Clinton's
emails, Lynch said the investigation would be done independently
and refused to disclose information.
Lynch said no one outside the Justice Department, even at the
White House, has been briefed on the case.
Lynch, who has been in the job as the United States' top law
enforcer since April 2015, waived off rumors that she might be
nominated to the Supreme Court to replace late Justice Antonin
Scalia.
"I haven't had those conversations. I'm very happy with my job,"
Lynch repeated twice.
