Hillary Clinton's press secretary Brian Fallon told CNN's Pamela Brown Friday that Clinton's attorney has been in contact with the Department of Justice.

"David Kendall is her top council and he has been in touch with the Justice Department throughout this review," Fallon said. "We've always been upfront about that."

Andrea Mitchell asked Clinton in an interview whether she or her representatives have been contacted by the FBI. Clinton shook her head and simply said no.

Fallon said that the Clinton campaign has been transparent about the situation from the beginning. Fallon also said that since last August that the Clinton campaign was willing to work with the Justice Department and set up interviews.

Despite reports<http://freebeacon.com/politics/romanian-clinton-server-hacker-easy/> that a foreign hacker known as Guccifer was able to access Clinton's server and noticed other foreign IP addresses on the server, Clinton said that the reports were not true. Guccifer is being held in a detention center in Alexandria, Virginia on federal charges related to other cyber crimes.

CNN first reported<http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/05/politics/fbi-interviews-huma-abedin-clinton-aide/index.html?adkey=bn> Thursday that the FBI was interviewing Clinton's closest aides, including Huma Abedin. The investigation is ongoing and investigators have not found evidence to convict Clinton for her use of a private server to skirt Freedom of Information Act requests.

Officials told CNN that multiple aides have been interviewed, some more than once. Bryan Pagliano, a former employee of the State Department who set up Clinton's email server, was granted immunity for his cooperation.

The FBI is hoping to close out the investigation within the coming weeks.
