This document is a transcript of a court hearing in the case of United States v. Nicholas Tartaglione. The proceedings focus on a motion by media organizations (NY Post, Daily News, NY Times) to unseal letters regarding Tartaglione's housing conditions at the MCC and MDC. The Judge rules against the Bureau of Prisons and orders the letters unsealed, citing the public interest in BOP conditions and the fact that Tartaglione's background (and connection to the Epstein incident) is already public knowledge. The hearing also touches on trial scheduling and the government's decision not to seek a warrant for a specific telephone.
