Summary
A legal letter dated March 31, 2021, from attorney Bobbi C. Sternheim to Judge Alison J. Nathan regarding the case United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell. The defense objects to a second superseding indictment filed by the government, characterizing it as 'tactical gamesmanship' that expands the conspiracy timeline (1994-2004) and adds charges based on old evidence against Jeffrey Epstein. Sternheim expresses concern over Maxwell's health and ability to stand trial, notes the government's refusal to provide accuser names, and requests a conference to discuss moving the July 12th trial date.

Quote #3
"However, the government’s continued refusal to provide the most basic discovery – names of accusers – coupled with what amounts to a new indictment... has effectively prevented trial preparation from moving forward in an orderly manner."Source
