Notable Quotes 2
For the third time in as many weeks, the defendant and her counsel have applied to the Court for relief that is premature, meritless, or both.
The Government is deeply concerned by the recent actions of the defendant's counsel who represent her in both this criminal matter as well as in certain civil matters, and who in a recent public filing in a civil case referred to their receipt of sealed materials in discovery in this case.

- Defense counsel publicly claimed in a civil filing that they purportedly had received "critical new information" from the criminal case that it could not disclose "because it is subject to a protective order in the Criminal Action," and further noting publicly a desire to seek modification of the protective order in this case to use such materials in the civil case, which the protective order expressly precludes.
