Notable Quotes 3
"Witnesses may be forced to testify about any efforts to assist the criminal investigation and prosecution, and may thereby expose facts about the investigation ... and could potentially expose witnesses and/or their families to harassment," states the SDNY's letter filed on Thursday.
"Moreover, permitting any discovery to proceed in this lawsuit would enable Maxwell to seek a preview of trial testimony in the criminal case, and would afford her with a broader array of discovery than she is entitled to in the criminal case."
"A stay of the civil proceedings would provide what defendant Maxwell has sought for years - concealing her heinous acts from public view," he said.
