Sources say she met with lawyers for woman who accused campaign of stealing e-mail list.
U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann is engaged in settlement negotiations in a lawsuit alleging that senior members of her presidential campaign stole a proprietary e-mail list of home-school families from the computer of an Iowa campaign staffer, according to sources close to the case.
The Minnesota Republican reportedly traveled to Des Moines Monday to meet with attorneys for Barb Heki, an Iowa woman who sued the campaign last year alleging the theft of the list, which eventually was used to contact Iowa home-schoolers.
Lawyers for Bachmann and the campaign did not respond to requests for comment on the talks. Bachmanns congressional office also declined to comment or provide an account of her whereabouts on Monday.
Heki, the campaigns former home school coalition director, referred questions to her new litigation attorney, Jeffrey Wright, who also declined to comment. In the past, Heki has sought a public apology from Bachmann, which has not been forthcoming.
