Summary

This legal document is a letter dated March 26, 2021, from the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York to Judge Alison J. Nathan, who is presiding over the case against Ghislaine Maxwell. The prosecution informs the court of a recent ruling in a separate case, U.S. v. Schulte, where Judge Crotty denied a motion to dismiss the indictment that was 'virtually identical' to one filed by Maxwell. The government argues that this precedent supports their position that Maxwell's motion should also be denied.

Re: United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell, 20 Cr. 330 (AJN)
Dear Judge Nathan:
The Government respectfully writes to bring the Court’s attention to a recent decision by Judge Crotty in United States v. Schulte, 17 Cr. 548 (PAC), which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 (“Schulte Op.”). In that case, the defendant filed a motion to dismiss the indictment on November 16, 2020 (see 17 Cr. 548 (PAC), ECF No. 435), which was virtually identical in multiple respects to the January 25, 2021 motion to dismiss the indictment filed by defendant Ghislaine Maxwell in the above-captioned case (see 20 Cr. 330 (AJN), ECF No. 126). Like Maxwell, the defendant in Schulte asserted, among other things, a claim under the Sixth Amendment of the Constitution, arguing that the indictment should be dismissed because the grand jury sitting in White Plains unfairly underrepresented Black and Hispanic individuals. Judge Crotty rejected those claims in their entirety and denied the defendant’s motion to dismiss. Judge Crotty’s thorough, well-reasoned decision supports the Government’s position in this case.
