Summary
This document is Page 3 of a letter from the Government to Judge Alison J. Nathan, dated August 21, 2020, arguing against modifying a protective order. The Government asserts that the defendant (implied Ghislaine Maxwell) should not be allowed to use materials from criminal discovery in her civil cases, citing witness privacy and an active, ongoing grand jury investigation into co-conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein. The text emphasizes that defense counsel represents the defendant in both criminal and civil matters and warns against 'cherry-picking' confidential materials to defend against abuse accusations.
