Event Details

This legal document, filed on December 15, 2021, is a court filing arguing against the Defense's request for witness anonymity for Ms. Maxwell's trial. The filing contends that the Defense's concerns about publicity are common in high-profile cases and do not meet the standard for granting pseudonyms, unlike the alleged victims who have a statutory right to privacy. It heavily cites the precedent of *United States v. Rainiere*, where a similar request for anonymity for supporters was denied because the public's interest in access prevailed over privacy concerns for matters not traditionally considered private.
