Summary

An email chain from October 2007 between attorney Jay Lefkowitz (Kirkland & Ellis) and redacted government officials (CC'ing Alex Acosta). The correspondence discusses legal strategy, specifically an agreement where liability would not be contested for specific victims ('girls on our list'), limiting discovery to damages rather than claim veracity. It also references Judge Davis's willingness to serve as a 'decider' and the execution of an addendum.

I called Judge Davis before I sent him the agreed upon letter. He indicated his willingness to serve as the "decider." I will call him tomorrow to see whether anything has changed and when we can anticipate a decision. Regarding the subpoena question, let me think about that overnight. Thanks,

Thanks [REDACTED]
I haven't heard anything from Judge Davis. I assume he is still willing to take on the role you asked him to take on, but can you please let me know if that is not the case?
Also, we are beginning to think about what discovery we may need to take to verify any claims. I am assuming that your office does not want to be copied on any subpoenas or anything related to discovery. But please let me know if that is an incorrect assumption.
Thanks - Jay
