This document is a letter from the U.S. Department of Justice to Judge Alison J. Nathan in the case against Ghislaine Maxwell, dated April 5, 2021. The Government objects to the defense's use of Rule 17(c) subpoenas, specifically one directed at law firm Boies Schiller Flexner LLP (BSF) seeking a victim's original diary, characterizing it as an improper 'fishing expedition' for discovery. The Government requests that the Court require the defense to provide notice of all future subpoenas and to share any materials obtained with the prosecution.
