From: BOBBI C STERNHEIM To: Cc: Christian Everdell , Jeff Pagliuca Subject: Re: United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell, 20 Cr. 330 (AJN) Date: Sun, 09 May 2021 16:14:34 +0000 Good afternoon- In our 4/22 letter, we provided specific details concerning cases and trial dates to justify our request for a continuance to 11/8. Beyond a vague statement regarding consideration of availability of witnesses and counsel, you have provided no specific details why the government cannot proceed to trial on 11/8. Starting the trial on 11/29 - besides disrupting Thanksgiving holiday plans - will push the trial to the end of the year and possibly into the new year, interfering with Christmas and New Year's plans, as COVID did last year. This will cast the defense and defense case in a negative light as jurors impatiently wait for the trial to conclude before Christmas, which it won't. Our previous email explained our reasons for firmly pressing the 11/8 trial date, but as an accommodation, we would consider starting on 11/15, but no later. For now, we will not agree to exclusion of speedy trial time beyond 11/8. These scheduling conflicts can be easily eliminated by consenting to bail for Ms. Maxwell. It is unclear why the scheduling order, which contemplated a continuance, should be altered. As previously discussed and raised with the Court, we need to review of 3500 material and exhibits before determining the need to call any experts. Enjoy the day. Bobbi BOBBI C. STERNHEIM, ESQ.

Regarding the trial date, after considering the availability of witnesses and counsel, we plan to propose a trial date of November 29, 2021. Could you please let us know your position regarding that date, so that we can include it in our letter to the Court? In addition, please let us know whether you consent to an exclusion of time under the Speedy Trial Act between now and the new trial date the Court selects. With respect to other scheduling matters, we intend to propose that the Court set a deadline of three months before trial for the Government to disclose the identities of victims referenced in the indictment; this is an earlier proposal than the timeframe we had originally proposed for the July trial date. We also intend to propose that the deadline for defense expert disclosures be set for two months before trial, given the substantial length of the adjournment. Please let us know your position regarding those proposed dates and we'll include it in our letter. Thanks very much, and hope everyone has a nice weekend-- From: BOBBI C STERNHEIM • Sent: Friday, May 7, 2021 5:26 PM To: ristian ver e • ura Menninger ; Jeff Pagliuca Subject: Re: United States v.

Ghislaine Maxwell, 20 Cr. 330 (AJN) Good afternoon- For the reasons stated in our letter-motion of 4/22 (Dkt. 246), our earliest and preferred date in the fall is 11/8. In light of Ms. Maxwell's extended period of detention and its deleterious effect on her health and well-being, we cannot agree to a date far beyond 11/8. However, should you agree to her release pending trial, we would have greater date flexibility. Enjoy the weekend. Bobbi BOBBI C. STERNHEIM, ESQ. Law Offices of Bobbi C.

Your April 22, 2021 letter does not address the defense's availability for trial dates after November Sth, and it would be helpful to get a complete picture of available dates throughout the balance of 2021 in order to provide the Court with comprehensive information. We're still in the process of conferring with witnesses regarding their availability, so we're gathering a variety of data points. Please let us know your availability and we can put together a proposal.
