Summary

This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, capturing a legal argument between a judge and an attorney, Mr. Everdell. The judge warns Mr. Everdell that his intended line of questioning for a witness—focusing on what the government didn't do—would violate a prior court order. Mr. Everdell defends his approach as an attempt to elicit evidence about the absence of evidence, but the judge reiterates that the jury's role is to evaluate the evidence the government did present.

"I'm not trying to violate this, which is why we're discussing this, your Honor. I just thought there was some room to be able to elicit evidence about the absence of evidence rather than just argument to the jury, and that's what I was intending to do with this witness."
