This legal document is a letter from defense counsel Jeffrey S. Pagliuca to Judge Alison J. Nathan, dated October 23, 2020, concerning Ghislaine Maxwell's case. The letter complains that the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) and the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) are severely hindering Ms. Maxwell's ability to prepare her defense by preventing counsel from reviewing documents with her effectively during legal visits. The defense requests the Court to order the BOP to allow them to pass legal papers to Ms. Maxwell for review and suggests a status conference to address these ongoing issues.
