The government opposes the defendant's request to use materials produced in the criminal case in related civil cases, arguing that this would violate the protective order and blur the lines between criminal and civil proceedings. The materials in question relate to the government's applications to modify protective orders in other judicial proceedings to comply with grand jury subpoenas issued in the Epstein investigation. The government's opposition emphasizes that criminal discovery is for defending the criminal action, not for use in civil litigation.
