This document is a page from a court transcript (Case 1:20-cr-00330, filed Aug 10, 2022) detailing a sidebar conversation during the direct examination of witness Alessi (likely Juan Alessi). The prosecutor, Ms. Comey, and the Judge discuss the admissibility of Alessi reading from an exhibit not in evidence; Alessi claims the document is a 'later version' because his name and his wife's name are missing from it.
