Summary

This document is a page from a court transcript (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN, likely US v. Ghislaine Maxwell) filed on August 10, 2022. Defense attorney Ms. Sternheim argues that lawyers representing witnesses should be callable as witnesses themselves because they attended 'proffer sessions' and coordinated with the government to build civil cases and settlements. The Judge prohibits Sternheim from mentioning this potential testimony in her opening statement because the defense failed to file a specific brief requesting permission to call these lawyers as witnesses.
