Summary

A discovery letter dated November 9, 2021, from U.S. Attorney Damian Williams to Ghislaine Maxwell's defense team. The letter accompanies the production of 'Business Records from SDFL Files' (Bates SDNY_GM_02767074 - 02771980), which the government notes are likely duplicative of materials previously produced from Florida FBI files in 2020. The letter also clarifies confidentiality designations under the Protective Order.
