Event Details

This document is a Memorandum & Order from Judge Loretta Preska dated July 29, 2020, denying Ghislaine Maxwell's request to reconsider the unsealing of her deposition transcripts and those of 'Doe 1'. Maxwell argued that her recent arrest and indictment were new developments requiring secrecy, but the court ruled these risks were already considered ('plowed ground') and that she failed to raise these specific objections in a timely manner after her arrest. The court granted a brief stay until July 31, 2020, to allow Maxwell to appeal, with unsealing scheduled for August 3, 2020, absent further orders.

This document is a legal memorandum filed by Ghislaine Maxwell's defense team arguing against the government's motion for detention and requesting release on bail. The defense argues that the COVID-19 pandemic poses a severe health risk and impedes defense preparation, and asserts that Maxwell is not a flight risk, citing her presence in the U.S. since Epstein's arrest. They propose a $5 million bond secured by UK property and strict conditions including home confinement and GPS monitoring.

Nathan, the motion to detain the defendant, and Maxwell's arrest in the District of New Hampshire.

Judge Loretta Preska denied Ghislaine Maxwell's request to reconsider the unsealing of her deposition transcripts, ruling that her recent arrest was not a valid new ground for reconsideration as she had failed to raise it during the weeks prior to the court's original decision. The court noted that the potential for criminal charges had already been weighed in the original unsealing order. A short stay was granted until August 3, 2020, to allow Maxwell to appeal to the Court of Appeals before the documents are released.

This document is a legal memorandum filed on October 13, 2021, by Ghislaine Maxwell's defense team in the Southern District of New York. The defense argues that due to 'tsunami' of negative pretrial publicity surrounding Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein (including books, podcasts, and documentaries), standard jury selection is insufficient. They request the Court allow individual sequestered voir dire and limited attorney-conducted questioning to identify and remove biased jurors.
