Event Details

This legal document, page 5 of a filing from April 5, 2021, presents the U.S. Government's argument for having legal standing to challenge subpoenas issued to third parties. Citing multiple court precedents (including Nachamie, Cole, and Carton), the Government asserts its legitimate interest in preventing witness harassment, controlling the timing of disclosures (such as Giglio material), and protecting its own communications. The document argues that allowing the Government to intervene is the only way to protect these interests, especially when a subpoena recipient may not be fully aware of the case's context.
