This document is page 170 of a legal filing (Document 204) in the case USA v. Ghislaine Maxwell (1:20-cr-00330-PAE), filed on April 16, 2021. The text presents a legal argument supporting the joinder of perjury charges with substantive offenses, citing the precedent of *United States v. Ruiz* regarding a NY State Senator who lied to conceal a financial scheme. The prosecution argues that, like in *Ruiz*, the current defendant's perjury was part of a common scheme to conceal her role in the charged sexual offenses.
