Notable Quotes 2
BTW, I probably don't need to tell you, our Touhy communications with VB are probably disclosable as Giglio info.
I have some hesitation on just referring them to NDGa for the SDFla investigative stuff. First, under Touhy section 16.22(b), the responsible USA is the USA for the district "where the issuing authority" is located.
