Summary
This legal document, filed on August 13, 2020, is a response from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York to a defendant's requests regarding housing and access to discovery. The prosecution argues that the defendant's application is moot because the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) has already granted the defendant extensive daily access to discovery materials from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. The document concludes by requesting that the defendant's application be denied.

continue to evaluate where the defendant should be housed within the facility and that the defendant will be placed into the general population if and when BOP is assured that such placement would not pose a threat to the orderly operation of the institution. The defendant identifies no basis for the Court to disturb that determination by the BOP, particularly given that, as detailed below, her housing assignment will not negatively affect her ability to review discovery in this case.
Regarding the defendant’s request in connection with access to discovery, the Government understands from BOP that the defendant had not even yet received her copy of the Government’s first discovery production at the time the Defense Letter was filed—she received the materials on Tuesday, August 11. While it is correct that BOP’s initial plan was to provide three hours per day of access to the discovery—the same access that is granted to every other pretrial inmate, including those with trial dates scheduled for far earlier than July 2021—as of earlier this week, and given the volume of expected discovery, BOP informed the defendant that she will have the opportunity to access to her discovery from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. every day of the week. Although this arrangement will be subject to continued evaluation on an ongoing and individualized basis, and is subject to ordinary considerations of prison operations, BOP intends to provide that access on an ongoing basis to the extent it remains reasonably practicable to do so. Accordingly, this application should be denied as moot.
C. Conclusion
For the reasons set forth above, the defendants’ requests, as set forth in the Defense Letter, should be denied.
Respectfully submitted,
AUDREY STRAUSS
