THE COURT: Yes, that's on my to-do list today, this
morning, which is to give you my view of the limiting
instruction, which I can do now.

So we last talked about this at the November 23rd
conference, and I think the defense agreed with the limiting
instruction. The government had suggested changes, which I
rejected, but I understood the government's position that it
wasn't fully accurate as stated, and that's because of
complications around New Mexico law, potentially.

"I anticipate that you'll hear testimony from the next witness
about sexual conduct that she said she had with Mr. Epstein in
New Mexico. I instruct you that the sexual conduct she says
occurred with Mr. Epstein in New Mexico was not, quote, illegal
sexual activity, end quote, as the government has charged in
