The discussion centers on a nonprosecution agreement (NPA) from the Southern District of Florida, referencing a prior ruling by Judge Marra who found that prosecutors failed to properly notify victims about the deal.

the United States, and there are alleged victims in this case
who complain that they were not, and there has been extensive
litigation in the Southern District of Florida before
Judge Marra on that very subject. In fact, the judge concluded
that the prosecutors from the Southern District of Florida did
not adequately notify some of the victims about the ongoing
discussions and the consummation of the deal and, in
particular, the NPA. The United States took the position that
they had no responsibility to do so, that they had treated the
victims properly, and that matter continues to this day.
The consequences of that matter are overwhelming,
because the judge suggested, I think three times, that the NPA,
the declination, could be voided. And we think about that for
a second. So a defendant negotiates what he thinks is a global
solution with the feds. He does his time --
THE COURT: Does the nonprosecution agreement in
Florida -- the nonprosecution agreements in the Southern
District routinely say they are limited to the Southern
District of New York.
MR. WEINGARTEN: Obviously --
THE COURT: Is there a similar provision in the
Florida agreement?
MR. WEINGARTEN: I don't want to misstate. It is not
before me. It is obviously going to be an important part of
the pretrial motions. What is for sure is that there was --
