Summary

This legal document, filed on January 25, 2021, presents an argument from Ms. Maxwell's defense. The defense argues against the joinder of Perjury Counts with Mann Act Counts, asserting it would create a substantial risk of jury confusion and prejudice Ms. Maxwell. The document also accuses the government of strategically limiting the charges to the 1994-1997 period to avoid the legal implications of Epstein's 2007 Non-Prosecution Agreement, while simultaneously trying to introduce conduct from a later period.
