Summary
This legal document is a letter dated October 6, 2020, from the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York to Judge Alison J. Nathan. The prosecution requests permission to delay the disclosure of sensitive evidence—photographs and documents of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse victims—to Ghislaine Maxwell's defense team until eight weeks before trial. The government argues this is necessary to protect an ongoing investigation and sensitive victim information, while noting the defense objects to this request.
