A Manhattan Supreme Court judge has denied attorneys for Exxon Mobil Corp. access to former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman’s personal email account but agreed to consider a request from the company to depose a representative of the state Attorney General’s Office.

Manhattan State Supreme Court Justice Barry Ostrager, at a hearing this week, dismissed two defenses offered by Exxon Mobil, which had accused the Attorney General’s Office of official misconduct and acting with a conflict of interest.
