Summary

This document is the conclusion of a legal filing, dated October 18, 2021, in case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE. The author argues that the Court should prohibit any law enforcement witness from giving expert opinion testimony because the officers were not properly disclosed as experts under Rule 16(1)(G), and such testimony would violate Rule 702. The argument extends to witnesses called by either the government or the defendant, Ms. Maxwell.
