This is page 2 of a legal letter addressed to Judge Alison J. Nathan, dated August 24, 2020, filed in the case of United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell. The defense argues against the government's characterization of Maxwell's actions as 'cherry-picking' and challenges the government's issuance of subpoenas as not being 'standard practice,' citing Second Circuit case law (Martindell) regarding protective orders and civil discovery. Large portions of the document are redacted.
This legal document is an introduction to a brief arguing against the government's position in an appeal. It clarifies that Ms. Maxwell's request is narrow: to share sealed information with Judge Preska and the appellate court about how prosecutors obtained her civil deposition material from the 'Giuffre v. Maxwell' case. The brief suggests this information is crucial for the court's decision on unsealing the material and could impact Ms. Maxwell's ability to litigate in her separate criminal case.
