See what you think?? | just don’t know that it’s necessary to get into every little accusation and innuendo; | feel like it should be straightforward — they’re trying to get around the protective order that was entered less than a month ago, and there’s no good cause. In particular, | don’t know that it would be productive to get into a fight about whether or not the materials are likely to affect the civil cases, because realistically Judge Nathan likely won’t be well positioned to evaluate those intricacies.

think it’s doable at a level of abstraction that highlights just how uncontroversial it is to get a subpoena (and ask a court to bless it). All that said, of course let me know what you think — | can always rework tomorrow afternoon if necessary, and in particular if anybody thinks it’s insufficient. And/or feel free to just make changes in it and take it from there—| have no pride of authorship and obviously one of you guys will ultimately sign. So whatever is preferable for y’all. many thanks, EFTA00087953
