Summary

This document is an email chain from December 2019 between attorney Andrew Patel and likely the US Attorney's Office regarding the Epstein case. The discussion centers on the Government's obligation to produce notes from a meeting with Patel's client (whose name is redacted) to the defense counsel. Patel argues that his client is not a witness, the information is not Brady material (exculpatory evidence), and that revealing his client's identity or the fact that he met with the Government could compromise his safety. Patel notes that an 'error' made by his client is contradicted by surveillance video evidence.

"Our client is not a witness, and so this is not 3500 material, nor is it Rule 16 material."
