This document is a legal reply from Ghislaine Maxwell's attorney, Jeffrey Pagliuca, to Judge Alison J. Nathan, dated August 24, 2020. It supports a request to modify a protective order to allow Maxwell to disclose to an adversary in a separate civil litigation that said adversary has already provided materials to the U.S. Attorney's Office via subpoena. The document argues against the government's stance that the civil litigation is unrelated and that disclosure would jeopardize the criminal investigation.
