Legal Correspondence / Demand Letter • 297 KB

This document is a formal legal demand letter dated December 2, 2019, from attorneys Scott A. Srebnick and Jose M. Quinon, representing Michael Avenatti, to the U.S. Attorney's Office (SDNY). The letter requests Brady/Giglio material regarding David Boies and John Stanley Pottinger, citing a New York Times report that they attempted to purchase secret videos filmed by Jeffrey Epstein to extort wealthy men. The defense argues that since Boies Schiller Flexner (BSF) lawyers are witnesses against Avenatti, evidence of their firm chairman's potential criminal conduct is relevant to their credibility and motive to curry favor with the government.
