Nathan denies Ghislaine Maxwell's request to override the Bureau of Prisons' security protocols regarding frequent safety checks and the prohibition of eye masks at the MDC.

Sternheim argues that recent voluminous discovery materials, including witness interviews, contain exculpatory information for Ms. Maxwell that requires significant time to investigate.
