Browner was ordered by a federal judge to keep her data files for the incoming Bush Administration and for the Freedom of Information Act. Instead she ordered the files destroyed and the back-up tapes erased. She claimed she had no clue about a court injunction signed by U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth. [3] After a two-year legal battle, Judge Lamberth finally held the EPA in contempt of court for the systemic file destruction.

She installed more than a dozen environmental group operatives into EPA posts. [4]
