Summary
This document is a legal memorandum submitted by Ghislaine Maxwell's attorneys in opposition to the government's motion for her detention. It argues that she should be released on bail due to the risks posed by COVID-19 in detention facilities and because the government has not proven that no conditions of release can reasonably assure her appearance in court.
