Case46a F2v-6743890M pote 10870 HletPOGAGI20 apayelZLGF 17 Pursuant to this Court’s Order and protocol for Unsealing Decided Motions, Defendant Ghislaine Maxwell, through her counsel objects to the unsealing of documents for the reasons stated. I. Overview Docket Entries (*DE[s]”) 143, 164, 172, 199, and 230 (“Sealed Material[s]” or “Sealed Item[s]”’) have been selected by the Court, with respect to Does | and 2, to begin the process of individualized review of these selected Sealed Materials to determine (a) the weight of presumption of public access that should be afforded to an item, (b) the identification and weight of any countervailing interests supporting continued sealing/redaction of the item, and (c) whether the countervailing interests rebut the presumption of public access to the item. Giuffre v. Maxwell, No. 15-CV-07433-LAP, 2020 WL 1547377, at *1 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 31, 2020); DE 1044.' Based on the Court’s clarification of its March 31, 2020 Order, DE 1053, (“the Protocol”), Non-Parties Does | and 2 have been served with the approved Notice and, pursuant to the Protocol, additional Non-Parties will be notified prior to any unsealing of the selected Sealed Materials. Does | and 2 did not respond to the Notice. The absence of a response, however, does not end the analysis. Although the Court’s Protocol requires consideration of objections from the other Non-Parties yet to be noticed, the Court could (and should) determine, based on the circumstances of the Sealed Materials selected here, that the items are appropriately sealed without the need for additional Non-Party objections. ‘ Pursuant to paragraph 2.g of the Order “any memorandum in support of a ... Party Objection to unsealing a particular Sealed Item shall be no longer than 6 double-spaced pages in 12 point, Times New Roman Font. Ms. Maxwell has lodged objections to the identified documents in 14 pages in compliance with the Order, i.e., this pledge is one-half of the authorized length. EFTA00022964

Maxwell, 929 F.3d 41, 50 (2d Cir. 2019) (citing United States v. Amodeo, 71 F.3d 1044, 1049-50 (2d Cir. 1995) (“Amodeo IT’)); (b) any minimum presumption of public access is subject to many countervailing interests supporting continued sealing; and (c) the countervailing interests rebut any minimal presumption of public access. II. DE 143 and Related DEs 142, 144, 144-1-7, 149, 150, 150-1, 151, 152, 153, and 153-1 are afforded the lowest presumption of public access and these Sealed Materials should remain sealed. This series of pleadings concerns Plaintiff's attempt to compel Ms. Maxwell to answer intrusive questions about her sex life.* * DE 143 quotes extensively, selectively, and misleadingly from Ms. Maxwell’s first seven-hour deposition. DE 144-1-7 contains 7 exhibits: 1, 2, and 4-7 are ? As discussed in Sections VII at VIII, infra, consideration of DEs 164 and 230 is premature at this time. * DE 142 is a letter notice; DE 143 is the initial motion; DE 144 is a lawyer declaration referencing the exhibits in DE 144-1-7. The declarations accompanying the various Sealed Materials often identify a Non-Party. The Court may wish to simply redact all of the Non-Party names from the declarations as a means of streamlining review and Notice problems. DE 149 is Defendant’s Response, 150 is a lawyer declaration referencing the exhibit in DE 150-1. DE 151 is another letter notice. DE 152 is Plaintiff's Reply. DE 153 is another lawyer declaration referencing the exhibits in DE 153-1-7. The name of Doe | appears in DEs 152, p. 6 and 153 p. 2 {{{ 7 and 8. Doe 2 does not appear in any DE 143 related pleading. + The following DEs contain references to Non-Parties: DE 143 references 2 non-parties; DE 144-1-7 references 7 non-parties; DE 150-1 references 9 non-parties. tN EFTA00022965

Countervailing Interests. All of the above DEs are either quotes from, summaries of, or portions of transcripts from Ms. Maxwell's deposition in this case. The subject matter of these DEs is extremely personal, confidential, and subject to considerable abuse by the media. Countervailing interests include: 1. Reasonable reliance on a protective order by a party or non-party (“CI-1”). If a party or nonparty provides information in connection with a lawsuit in reasonable reliance upon a Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c) protective order, the information must remain sealed. See Martindell v. Int'l Tel. & Tel. Corp., 594 F.2d 291, 296 (2d Cir. 1979); see id. at 297- 98 (Medina, J., concurring) (noting “overriding policy in favor of enforcing the civil protective order against federal prosecutor's request for deposition transcripts”, and holding "[A] plaintiff in a civil litigation is bound by the terms of an agreement he has made to restrict the access of non- EFTA00022966

Eastman Kodak Co., 415 F.Supp. 129 (S.D.N.Y.1976), with which I fully concur.") (footnote omitted). Martindell was cited with approval in SEC v. TheStreet.com, 273 F.3d 222, 232 (2d Cir. 2001), which was cited with approval in Brown, 929 F.3d at 51 n.40. Notably the Second Circuit in Brown held that redactions of sensitive, private information disclosed by witnesses in depositions because of "a strong expectation of continued confidentiality, " Brown, 929 F.3d at 48 n.22, and the Second Circuit itself redacted sensitive personal references in Ms. Maxwell’s deposition testimony excerpts. Ms. Maxwell was the Defendant in this defamation action. She did not inject her personal life into this case and was deposed under a court-ordered guarantee that her testimony would remain confidential. She relied on that order and has a strong expectation of continued confidentiality. 2. Prevention of the abuse of court records and files (“CI-2”). Courts must exercise their supervisory power over their own records and files to ensure they “are not used to gratify private spite or promote public scandal” or “serve as reservoirs of libelous statements for press consumption.” Brown, 929 F.3d at 51 (quoting Nixon v. Warner Comme'ns, Inc., 435 U.S. 589, 598 (1978)). The Brown court held: "District courts should exercise the full range of their substantial powers to ensure their files do not become vehicles for defamation. /d. at 53. The above DE’s are textbook examples of materials that should not be submitted to courts because of their potential for abuse. 3. Annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, undue burden (“CI-3”). Materials that cause annoyance, embarrassment, oppression or undue burden to an individual should be sealed or redacted. See Brown, 929 F.3d at 51. The questions were intrusive and embarrassing.

Case4d S26 72389 0M pote 10870 HictPOGAGI20 ABAY Ole 17 4. Preserving the fundamental rights of suspects or others under criminal investigation (“CI-4”). The preservation of the fundamental rights of suspects and others under criminal investigation is a powerful countervailing interest weighing against the presumption of access. See Nixon, 435 U.S. at 595, 602; Brown, 929 F.3d at 47 n.13; Martindell, 594 F.2d at 295-97. The courts have an obligation to safeguard the integrity of criminal investigations and the privacy and safety of witnesses and suspects that are part of those investigations. United States v. Longueuil, 567 F. App’x 13, 16 (2d Cir. 2014) (holding that district court properly sealed contested documents “as they reflected sensitive information about cooperating witnesses, “and concluding that sealing was justified in part "to safeguard the privacy of individuals involved in an investigation”; “[t}he district court was in the best position to weigh these factors”) (internal quotations and citation omitted); Hardy, 697 Fed. App'x at 725 (2d Cir. 2017) (noting that courts have found that the following can defeat presumption of access: protection of ongoing investigations, safety of witnesses, national security, and trade secrets). Ms. Maxwell is aware, based on publicly reported statements by Plaintiff, Plaintiff's counsel, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and the Attorney General for the U.S. Virgin Islands, that investigations surrounding the alleged conduct of Mr. Epstein survive his death. It is unclear who are witnesses or targets of any investigation. These ongoing investigations are a powerful countervailing interest here. The sealed testimony or summaries may inappropriately influence potential witnesses or alleged victims. IV. DE 144-1- Exhibit 3 (police reports); DE 153; DE 153- Exhibit 2 “Flight Log Summary Chart” prepared by Plaintiff's counsel and flight logs; Exhibit 3 (88 pages of police reports): Identification of Countervailing Interests. Numerous yet to be notified Non-Party Does are mentioned in these documents and it is premature for the Court to make any decision to unseal these documents prior to Notice. EFTA00022968

Countervailing Interests 1. Prevention of the abuse of court records and files (CI-2). Brown, 929 F.3d at 5land 53, see section IIL.A.2, supra. 2. Improper submission of documents (“CI-5”). Documents that a party has submitted for a non-merits purpose, e.g., the confidentiality, discoverability or admissibility of information, should remain sealed or redacted if there is any interest in sealing or redaction. See TheSreet.Com, 273 F.3d at 233. The references to the various attached exhibits were gratuitous and served no legitimate purpose related to the discovery dispute. During the course of this litigation Plaintiff offered, on more than one occasion, various iterations and compilations of the Palm Beach Police Reports in which no one identified Ms. Maxwell as a suspect, a perpetrator, or participant. The attachment of alleged summaries of flight logs, alleged flight logs, and police reports was simply a mechanism to attempt to bias the Court and any potential future reader of the material. These issues were briefed in various undecided motions in limine. 3. Untrustworthy, unreliable, and incorrect information (“CI-6”). Courts should continue the sealing or redaction of information that is or may be untrustworthy, hearsay or incorrect or that simply is misinformation. United States v. Amodeo, 71 F.3d 1044, 1052 (2d Cir. 1995) (“Amedeo IT’) ("The nature of some parts of the Report militate against unsealing, however. Portions of the Report are hearsay, and may contain misinformation. There is a strong possibility that the report will contain material which is untrustworthy or simply incorrect.") (internal quotations, brackets, citation and ellipsis omitted). Exhibits 4 and 7 are inadmissible hearsay transcripts from an unreliable deceased individual never deposed by Ms. EFTA00022969

The declarant suffered multiple felony convictions and had been involved in attempting to obtain money from one of Plaintiff's lawyers in exchange for alleged evidence. These issues were briefed in various undecided motions in limine. V. DE 153-1 exhibits 4 and 7 and DE 153-1, exhibits 5 and 6: Identification of Countervailing Interests A. Countervailing Interests 1. Untrustworthy, unreliable, and incorrect information (CI-6). Exhibits 5 and 6 concern J. Doe 1. Both exhibits are hearsay statements made by J.

These pleadings concern what should have been a straightforward request by Plaintiff to exceed the presumptive 10 deposition limit set by the Court.’ It was not. Instead of simply asking to exceed the presumptive limit, Plaintiff felt the urge to pack the record with deposition testimony subject to the Protective Order and references to multiple Non-Party Does including deposition testimony from Non-Party Does.° > DE 171 is a letter notice; DE 172 is the initial motion; DE 173 is a lawyer declaration referencing the exhibits in DE 173-1.

However, Countervailing interests exist that warrant a decision to seal many of the Selected Materials regardless of any additional Non-Party objections. A. Identification of Countervailing Interests 1. Reasonable reliance on a protective order by a party or non-party (CI-1). Prevention of the abuse of court records and files (CI-2). Annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, undue burden (CI-3). Preserving the fundamental rights of suspects or others under criminal investigation (CI-4). DE 172 contains multiple references to Ms. Maxwell’s deposition testimony and the deposition testimony of one other Non-Party taken pursuant to the Protective Order. See pp. 2, 4-8 as to Ms. Maxwell and pp. 3, 4, 9, and 11 as to an additional Non-Party Doe. Reasonable reliance on a protective order by a party or non-party, Prevention of the abuse of court records and files, Annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, undue burden, Preserving the fundamental rights of suspects or others under criminal investigation, all identified in section III.A.1-4 apply to these pages of DE 172. 2. Non-Judicial Documents (“CI-7”). In defining “judicial records and documents,” the Second Circuit “ha[s] emphasized that ‘the mere filing of a paper or document with the court is insufficient to render that paper a judicial document subject to the right of public access.’” Brown v. Maxwell, 929 F.3d 41, 49 (2d Cir. 2019) (emphasis supplied; footnote omitted; quoting United States v. Amodeo, 44 F.3d 141, 145 (2d Cir. 1995) (“Amodeo I’’)). Amodeo I, the inception of the Second Circuit’s principle that a file stamp is not a judicial-document talisman, is instructive.

Newsday moved to unseal the report. After the court released an edited and redacted copy of the report, Newsday appealed. See 44 F.3d at 142-43. If its mere filing transformed the report into a judicial document, Amodeo I would have been categorical and succinct. It was neither. The decision turned on the Second Circuit’s lengthy discussion of the First and Third Circuits’ divergent approaches to the question, when is a mere ee document transformed into a judicial one? The Third Circuit’s focus was “‘on the technical question of whether a document is physically on file with the court.”” Amodeo I, 44 F.3d at 145 (quoting Pansy v. Borough of Stroudsburg, 23 F.3d 772, 782 (3d Cir. 1994)). In that circuit if a document is filed with a court, it is a judicial document; otherwise it is not. See id. (citing Pansy, 23 F.3d at 782). The Amodeo | court cited two other Third Circuit cases confirming that circuit’s litmus-test approach to identifying judicial documents: Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association v. Hotel Rittenhouse Association, 800 F.2d 339, 344-45 (3d Cir. 1986) (“Once a settlement is filed in the district court, it becomes a judicial record, and subject to the access accorded such records.”); Leucadia, Inc. v. Applied Extrusion Technologies, Inc., 998 F.2d 157, 161-62 (3d Cir. 1993) (listing cases in which “other courts have also recognized the principle that the filing of a document gives rise to a presumptive right of public access”). Amodeo I, 44 F.3d at 145. The First Circuit “has taken a somewhat different approach,” id. In that circuit “documents must have a role in the adjudication process in order to be accessible and . . . documents that have no such role, such as those used in discovery, cannot be reached.” /d. (citing Anderson v. Cryovac, Inc., 805 F.2d 1, 13 (1st Cir. 1986)). Amedeo I found instructive F.7.C. v. Standard EFTA00022972

In F.7.C. a district court relied upon financial records referenced in a proposed consent decree in deciding whether to approve the decree. The First Circuit held the financial records were judicial documents because they were submitted to the court as part of the decree-approval process, they were “‘relevant and material” to the process, and the district court “relied upon the documents in assessing the reasonableness of the order, i.e., in determining the litigants’ substantive rights, and in performing its adjudicatory function.’” /d. (quoting F.7.C., 830 F.2d at 410). The Second Circuit adopted the First Circuit's approach: We think that the mere filing of a paper or document with the court is insufficient to render that paper a judicial document subject to the right of public access. We think that the item filed must be relevant to the performance of the judicial function and useful in the judicial process in order for it to be designated a judicial document. Id. Brown was building on Amodeo I’s holding when it said, “As our precedent makes clear, a court “‘perform[s] the judicial function’ ... when it rules on motions currently before it.” Brown, 929 F.3d at 49 (emphasis supplied; footnote omitted; quoting Amodeo I, 44 F.3d at 145). And it was building on Amodeo I when it said, “A document is thus ‘relevant to the performance of the judicial function’ if it would reasonably have the tendency to influence a district court’s ruling on amotion....” /d. (emphasis supplied; footnote omitted; quoting Amodeo I, 44 F.3d at 145). Both Brown accretions to the Amodeo | principle are themselves dependent upon the principle. If a motion is not “currently before” the district court, then a fortiori the court is not “perform[ing] the judicial function.” And if a motion is not currently before the court, then a fortiori it cannot “reasonably have [a] tendency to influence” the court. Brown’s holding was hardly a surprise. It followed S.E.C. v. TheStreet.Com, 273 F.3d 222, 233 (2d Cir. 2001). There the Second Circuit held that documents that “did not ‘directly affect an EFTA00022973

DE 173, a declaration, references additional Non-Parties, generally those identified in lawyer emails. The Court may wish to defer consideration of this DE. Redaction of the names would eliminate any issue related to this document. DE 173-1 exhibits 1-4 identify additional Non-Parties. Generally, these exhibits are a composite of various back and forth emails between counsel which are hearsay, non-judicial, documents and which contain the identity of Non-Party Does. This exhibit should not be considered a judicial document.
