This document is page 6 of a legal letter addressed to Judge Alison J. Nathan, dated December 27, 2021, filed during the Ghislaine Maxwell trial. The defense argues that a jury note indicates confusion regarding Counts Two and Four, specifically concerning jurisdiction and New York law. The text argues that the jury should not be permitted to convict Maxwell based on conduct that occurred in New Mexico (specifically aiding in a return flight from New Mexico) as it does not constitute a violation of New York law.

This legal document, filed on February 24, 2022, argues against setting aside a jury verdict. It establishes that the standard for doing so is an "exacting hurdle," citing Federal Rule of Evidence 606(b), which severely restricts jurors from testifying about their deliberations. The document contrasts this federal standard with New Jersey state law and clarifies that only specific, improper outside influences, not a juror's personal experiences, can be grounds for such an inquiry.

This legal document, dated December 27, 2021, is a filing to Judge Alison J. Nathan arguing that the jury in Ms. Maxwell's trial is confused. The author contends that the court's response to a jury note improperly allows them to consider conduct that occurred in New Mexico as a basis for conviction on counts requiring a violation of New York law. The filing cites legal precedent to argue that New York lacks jurisdiction over conduct occurring entirely out-of-state and that this issue could warrant vacating a potential conviction.
