This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, detailing the beginning of the government's rebuttal argument in the trial of Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). The prosecutor, Ms. Comey, argues that the case is about Maxwell's crimes against children she targeted for abuse, specifically naming victims Jane, Carolyn, and Annie. She dismisses the defense's arguments as attempts to distract the jury and asserts the government's right to respond to them.

DOJ-OGR-00017171.jpg

This document is a summation by Ms. Menninger in a legal case (1:20-cr-00330-PAE) filed on August 10, 2022. Ms. Menninger argues for reasonable doubt regarding Carolyn's involvement in Count Six, suggesting Carolyn added Ghislaine Maxwell to her story after financial difficulties. The summation also addresses the government's conspiracy theory involving Epstein and Maxwell arranging for underage females to travel to New York for sex acts, clarifying that Carolyn did not travel to New York and Annie Farmer's travel was independent of Ghislaine Maxwell.

DOJ-OGR-00017084.jpg

This document is a transcript of a prosecutor's (Ms. Moe) summation in a criminal trial, filed on August 10, 2022. The prosecutor outlines the evidence for Count Five, a sex trafficking conspiracy charge spanning 2000-2004, detailing how the defendant (identified as Maxwell) and co-conspirator Epstein recruited and trafficked victims Carolyn and Virginia Roberts. The prosecutor explains to the jury that they only need to find one instance of agreement and one step taken to carry out the conspiracy to find the defendant guilty.

DOJ-OGR-00017076.jpg

This document is a transcript of a prosecutor's (Ms. Moe) summation in a criminal trial against a defendant named Maxwell. The prosecutor argues that Maxwell was complicit in crimes with an associate named Epstein, citing her living arrangements in Palm Beach, her knowledge of his preferences, and the millions of dollars she received from him. The prosecutor introduces the legal theory of 'aiding and abetting' as a basis for the jury to find Maxwell guilty on specific counts.

DOJ-OGR-00008990.jpg

This document is page 11 of a legal filing (Document 609) from Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE (United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell), dated February 24, 2022. It is the conclusion of a motion filed on behalf of 'Juror 50' requesting that the Court release his Jury Questionnaire and voir dire transcript under seal to his attorney, the Prosecution, and the Defense. The filing argues that privacy concerns should not prevent Juror 50 from accessing his own documents, which are necessary to comply with a prior order from Judge Nathan regarding an inquiry into the juror's conduct.

DOJ-OGR-00008988.jpg

This page from a legal filing in the Ghislaine Maxwell case (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE) argues that 'Juror 50' must be allowed to review their own Jury Questionnaire and voir dire transcript. The filing asserts this review is necessary for the juror to address questions regarding their truthfulness about prior sexual abuse, in compliance with a January 5, 2022 order by Judge Nathan. It cites legal precedents regarding third-party intervention and privilege.

DOJ-OGR-00008985.jpg

This document is page 6 of a legal filing (Document 609) from February 24, 2022, in the case United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE). It argues for Juror 50's right to intervene in the action to obtain a copy of his Jury Questionnaire under seal and asserts his right to privacy regarding his history as a sexual assault survivor. The text references an inquiry initiated by Judge Nathan regarding Juror 50's conduct and potential non-disclosure during jury selection, heightened by intense media scrutiny.

Court filing / legal memorandum (motion to intervene)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00008984.jpg

This legal document provides the factual background for a motion by 'Juror 50' to intervene in a case. After a verdict on December 29, 2021, Juror 50 gave media interviews alleging personal experience with sexual abuse, which prompted the Defense Counsel to send a letter to Judge Nathan seeking a new trial. The judge subsequently issued an order giving Juror 50 until January 26, 2022, to decide if he wants to be heard on the matter.

This document is the table of contents for a legal filing (Document 609) in case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE, filed on February 24, 2022. The filing outlines arguments related to Juror 50's request to intervene and the potential release of their jury questionnaire to counsel under seal. The arguments address jurors' privacy rights, potential criminal exposure, and compliance with a prior order from Judge Nathan.

DOJ-OGR-00019671.jpg

This is a legal motion filed on October 8, 2020, in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Defendant-Appellant Ghislaine Maxwell, through her law firm Haddon, Morgan and Foreman, P.C., requests permission to file an unredacted reply brief under seal. The motion is part of an appeal concerning a lower court order by Judge Nathan which denied a request to modify a criminal protective order.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019667.jpg

This is the conclusion page of a legal filing (Case 20-3061) dated October 8, 2020, arguing on behalf of Ghislaine Maxwell. The text requests that the appellate court reverse a district court order denying Maxwell's motion to modify a protective order. It references the 'Martindell' legal standard and accuses the government of trying to shield itself from a forthcoming motion before Judge Nathan.

Legal filing / appellate brief (conclusion page)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019665.jpg

This document is page 19 of a legal filing (Case 20-3061) dated October 8, 2020, likely an appellate brief filed by Ms. Maxwell's defense. It argues that Judge Preska (civil case) is evaluating unsealing documents without knowing critical facts obscured by a criminal protective order overseen by Judge Nathan. The defense contends that unless the order is modified to allow sharing information under seal, Maxwell's right to a fair trial by an impartial jury will be prejudiced by the release of deposition materials.

Legal filing / appellate brief
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019663.jpg

This document is page 17 of a legal brief filed on October 8, 2020, in Case 20-3061 (likely the 2nd Circuit appeal). It argues that Ghislaine Maxwell should be allowed to challenge the government's investigative methods before Judge Nathan and that deposition materials should remain sealed to preserve this challenge. The text references a dispute over a protective order and cites Rule 6(e) regarding grand jury witnesses.

Legal brief / court filing (appeal)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019661.jpg

This legal document, page 15 of a filing in Case 20-3061 dated October 8, 2020, presents arguments on behalf of Ms. Maxwell. It contends that her immediate appeal falls within the 'collateral order doctrine' and will not delay her criminal trial, contrary to the government's suggestion. The document also puts forward an alternative request for the appellate court to issue a writ of mandamus, arguing that Judge Nathan abused her discretion in a previous ruling.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019660.jpg

This document is page 14 of a legal filing (Case 20-3061) dated October 8, 2020. It argues that the government fails to acknowledge that Ms. Maxwell is prohibited by a protective order (upheld by Judge Nathan) from disclosing specific details. These prohibited disclosures include the identity of a 'Recipient,' materials obtained by the government, details about the bulk of the case against her, and why 'Court-2' declined a government request; all specific details regarding these points are heavily redacted.

Legal filing / appellate brief fragment
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019658.jpg

This legal document, part of case 20-3061 dated October 8, 2020, argues on behalf of Ms. Maxwell. It states that her reliance on a protective order is justified, especially in the context of a grand jury investigation. The filing also asserts that information about how the government bypassed an individual named Martindell is relevant and that Ms. Maxwell's right to litigate this issue before Judge Nathan is essential for her due process and a fair trial.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019656.jpg

This page from a legal brief (Case 20-3061) dated October 8, 2020, argues that the appellate court has jurisdiction to review Judge Preska's decision because Judge Nathan's order is unreviewable post-judgment. The text counters the Government's arguments regarding the unsealing of confidential criminal discovery materials and references a previous motion to consolidate cases. Significant portions of the text are redacted.

Legal brief / court filing (appeal reply brief)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019654.jpg

This legal document, part of an appeal, argues against the government's position that Ms. Maxwell must wait until after her criminal trial to challenge certain judicial decisions. The filing asserts that the current appeal is the correct and only time to review Judge Preska's unsealing order from a related civil case, as a panel in the criminal case would lack jurisdiction. It also refutes the government's claim that a post-judgment appeal would be an effective remedy for premature unsealing of materials.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019652.jpg

This document is page 6 of a legal brief (likely a reply brief) filed on October 8, 2020, in the case of United States v. Maxwell (Case 20-3061). It argues that the appellate court has jurisdiction under the collateral order doctrine to review Judge Nathan's order regarding a criminal protective order. The text notes that Maxwell is scheduled for trial in July 2021 and explicitly seeks permission to share specific information (which is redacted in the text) with Judge Preska and the appellate court under seal.

Legal filing / appellate brief (reply brief)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019642.jpg

This document is a legal filing arguing that Judge Nathan acted within her discretion by denying Maxwell's motion to modify a protective order. The filing asserts Maxwell provided no good cause to use criminal discovery materials in a civil case. It contrasts this with the 'Doe case,' which was stayed due to its potential interference with the criminal prosecution, a concern the document claims is not present in the 'Giuffre v. Maxwell' case.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019640.jpg

This document is a page from a legal brief filed on October 2, 2020, arguing that Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal regarding a protective order is moot. The text details that Judge Nathan has already authorized Maxwell to inform Judge Preska (under seal) about specific facts learned during criminal discovery regarding government subpoenas, which Maxwell claims is necessary to argue for a stay on unsealing deposition materials. It also notes that Maxwell's criminal charges include allegations of perjury in civil cases.

Legal brief / court filing (appellate)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019638.jpg

This legal document, part of an appeal, critiques Ghislaine Maxwell's arguments for keeping criminal discovery materials sealed in her civil cases. The author contends that Maxwell has failed to provide a coherent legal basis for her request and did not adequately explain the relevance of the materials to Judge Nathan. Maxwell's concern is that unsealing the deposition material could prevent her from making future arguments to Judge Nathan regarding alleged government misconduct.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019637.jpg

This document is page 24 (PDF page 30) of a legal brief filed by the Government on October 2, 2020. It argues that Judge Nathan did not abuse her discretion in denying Maxwell's request to modify a Protective Order. The text asserts that Maxwell failed to explain why criminal discovery materials were necessary for pending civil litigation or relevant to First Amendment issues regarding public docketing.

Legal brief / court filing (appellate)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00019636.jpg

This legal document, page 23 of a court filing dated October 2, 2020, argues that Judge Nathan correctly denied a motion by Maxwell. Maxwell sought to use discovery materials from her criminal case in a separate civil litigation, but the judge found her reasons to be "vague, speculative, and conclusory." The document notes that Maxwell had previously consented to a Protective Order prohibiting this and that she was aware the Government had charged her with perjury related to civil cases.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00017299.jpg

This document is a court transcript from a case where the judge and counsel discuss how to communicate with a deliberating jury about their schedule. The judge proposes a note asking if the jury wants to deliberate the next day, "December 23rd". After a recess, the court receives a note back from the jury requesting the testimonies of individuals named Jane and Kate Wong.
