A spokeswoman for current Gov. Eric Holcomb says Pence's attorneys sent notice in July that they were handing over an electronic database containing the emails.
The Republican governor's office is grappling with a backlog of public records requests. Some are more than a year old and most are seeking emails from Pence's private accounts.

Holcomb spokeswoman Jane Jankowsky said Friday that the records are being reviewed. His office hopes to begin releasing them soon.
