and will live tweet, thread belowamazon.com/gp/product/B09…

All rise!
Sullivan & Cromwell for Goldman Sachs: This was a grossly inadequate discovery production, about their claimed investment in Celsius through her Bank of America account
Judge: They only gave you material from the public docket?
S&C: Nothing of substance

S&C for Goldman: They supposedly sold $12 million of these shares. But we have no info. We subpoenaed Bank of America but they say counsel to Ms. Lee tells them no, it's private.
[Kimora Lee's two lawyers are whispering]
S&C: We litigated this before Judge Rochon

S&C: Following Mr. Leissner's arrest, he told us in a deposition, Bank of America kicked him off the account. So the account's in his name. We've been blocked at every turn. We hear Ms. Lee is settling with others, may get a lot of stock in days or weeks

Kimora Lee's lawyer hands S&C / Goldman lawyer some papers, says "As long as these don't be come part of the public record.
S&C lawyer: This line says $14 million-
Judge: Given the protective order, perhaps you should be more guarded
S&C lawyer: Here is says $82M

S&C/Goldman lawyer: It says "Keyway" (sp) was to send $20 million to a Swiss bank account, we don't know where this money came from.
Judge: There are bank accounts I'd like to talk about, I don't know where they are.
Kimora Lee's lawyer: We produced what we had

Judge: Was there a $12 million sale of Celsius stock?
Kimora Lee's lawyer: It's not in the production because it was many years ago.
Judge: How long?
Kimora Lee's lawyer: 6 years. The Robinsons have some records from 2017. The Celsius shares are in a JPMC account.

Judge: I just want to make sure bank statements are not being disappeared.
Kimora Lee's 2d lawyer: I had to travel from Indiana to South Jersey, I can put in information by the end of the week.
Judge: It's past due- move to quash by then or BofA must comply

Judge: What about an affidavit by Ms. Lee about the scope of the search she did?
Kimora Lee's 1st lawyer: Other than Goldman's desire for more, there is no basis to believe Mr. Lee and the Robinson entities have not fully complied.
Judge: I'm prepared to rule

Judge: I deny Goldman's motion to compel on Phase One, for the moment; and I denied the request for an affidavit from Ms. Lee. It may be needed later on if the production continues to be skimpy. On BofA, Ms. Lee has until the end of the week to file a motion

Goldman's lawyer: What about deposing Ms. Lee about the Celsius shares, which we understand are soon to be unfrozen by the Eastern District. We can't file a TRO because I don't have the records right now.
Lee's lawyer: She filed for these in the forfeiture

Kimora Lee's lawyer: Goldman has no basis for these demands, no special deposition, just 2d phase.
Judge: What about some documents? Prioritize them in light of what's about to happen in EDNY.
