Summary

This document is a court transcript from August 6, 2019, detailing a conversation between the judge and defense counsel, Mr. Weinberg, about scheduling a trial. Mr. Weinberg requests a preliminary trial date after Labor Day to allow time to assess his client, Mr. Epstein's, 'ability'. The judge questions this request in light of a presumed desire for a speedy trial, to which Weinberg responds by citing the length of the trial and the timing of discovery.
