Summary
This document is a legal filing (page 122 of 239) by the Government opposing Ghislaine Maxwell's motion to suppress evidence and dismiss Counts Five and Six. The Government argues that suppression is unwarranted because the contested materials, specifically Maxwell's 2016 deposition transcripts, were already unsealed in civil litigation by Judge Preska and affirmed by the Second Circuit, making them subject to 'inevitable discovery.' Footnote 42 discusses the defendant's failed attempt to modify a protective order to use criminal discovery materials in her civil case.
