This legal document is a page from a court filing, specifically page 5 of 6 from Document 548 in case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE, filed on December 15, 2021. The Court denies the Defense's request for a witness to testify under a pseudonym, arguing that the witness does not qualify as a victim under the Crime Victims' Rights Act because her anticipated testimony is that she was not a target of sexual misconduct by Epstein or Ms. Maxwell. The Court distinguishes this situation from a prior ruling where pseudonyms were allowed to protect the identities of other, actual victims.

This legal document, filed on December 15, 2021, is a court filing arguing against the Defense's request for witness anonymity for Ms. Maxwell's trial. The filing contends that the Defense's concerns about publicity are common in high-profile cases and do not meet the standard for granting pseudonyms, unlike the alleged victims who have a statutory right to privacy. It heavily cites the precedent of *United States v. Rainiere*, where a similar request for anonymity for supporters was denied because the public's interest in access prevailed over privacy concerns for matters not traditionally considered private.
