Summary
This page from a legal filing argues that Perjury Counts against Ms. Maxwell should not be joined with Mann Act Counts under Rule 8(a) because the connection is illogical, and that they should be severed under Rule 14(a) to prevent substantial prejudice. The defense contends that the perjury charges stem from confusing questions in a separate defamation lawsuit and that a joint trial would improperly force the re-litigation of that civil matter.
