Summary

This document is an email chain from January 2021 between Ghislaine Maxwell's defense attorney, Bobbi Sternheim, and BOP/MDC officials. Sternheim urgently requests that time-sensitive legal mail delivered to the MDC be given to Maxwell immediately for review over the Martin Luther King Day weekend. She also requests that Maxwell be granted access to a government-provided laptop because standard MDC computers cannot open the necessary discovery documents, arguing that denial of access hinders Maxwell's defense. The BOP recipient responds that the legal department does not process mail and that BOP policies must be followed.

Good afternoon Bobbi:
As I previously noted, the legal department is not involved in the
processing of legal or regular mail. Additionally, there are BOP
policies and procedures that must be complied with when processing
mail.
Have a good weekend.
Best,

Good morning-
On Thursday, 12/14, we are express mailing time-sensitive documents
for next-day delivery for review by Ms. Maxwell. We need to discuss
these documents with Ms. Maxwell on Tuesday 12/19, in order to comply
with a court-ordered filing deadline. We understand that legal calls are
suspended on holidays (Monday, 1/18, is Martin Luther King Day).
EFTA00030883
To ensure that Ms. Maxwell receives the documents on Friday for
review over the weekend, we are requesting permission to send them to
the attention of the Legal Department for prompt delivery to Ms.
Maxwell.
Please let me know if this is acceptable.
In addition, we are requesting that Ms. Maxwell be given access to
the laptop
computer provided by the government for use over the weekend.
The MDC computers are not capable of opening discovery documents
provided by the government,
which is why the laptop has been provided. Without access to a
computer that allows her
to review discovery, Ms. Maxwell is effectively denied the ability
to assist in her defense.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
