#SDNY Murphy trial was to have already begun today. But after US withholding, J Sullivan Qs - thread innercitypress.com/rjs10murphynos…
Judge Sullivan cites US Attorney's Office's "abject violation of a court order." No other media here. #EpsteinOnly @SDNYLIVE
Seems lab reports for crack, given to Murphy's lawyers hours before jury selection, are excluded. Trial when?
Another AUSA says, this should never have happened, but exclusion is an extreme remedy. J Sullivan: so what consequences?
Sounds like no adjournment. Now 8 people, seemingly friends and family of Murphy, come in. It's on. @SDNYLIVE

OK - now US v Sean Combs final jury selection, peremptory challenges - Inner City Press is covering the case (book: amazon.com/dp/B0DHP7YF19
and will live tweet, thread below x.com/innercitypress…
All rise!
Judge Subramanian: Anything before peremptory challenges?
Assistant US Attorney: Juror 295 should be excluded based on her email to the jury office, personal safety.
Judge: She's out.
AUSA: And Juror 146 has a lawsuit against the City, undisclosed
Combs' lawyer Agnifilo: OK, but what about Juror 131, who worked at Legal Aid?
Judge: That's different. 146 is out, but 131 is still in. I propose we bring in on Monday the 12, the six alternates - and the three remaining. Or should we do the strikes on Monday?

Judge Subramian: Sounds fine.
Combs' Agnifilo: We want the HBO juror, 29, out
Combs' Agnifilo: Teny Geragos of our team was on emails with the production company of the HBO documentary. People were paid -

OK - now US v. Sean Combs jury selection Day 2, after HBO staffer left in jury pool and US asked to admonish Mark Geragos patreon.com/posts/diddy-do… Inner City Press wrote books amazon.com/dp/B0DHP7YF19 & books.google.com/books/about?id…… and will live tweet, thread below x.com/innercitypress…
All rise!
Judge Subramanian: Good morning. Everyone in the room has already filled out a questionnaire about the case. I will be asking you additional questions - some may be about topics difficult to discuss with strangers. Each side has peremptory challenges
Judge: You have received a list of questions. You will be escorted to Courtroom 26B, then brought one by one back here into Courtroom 26A... You will be shown a list of people and places. If you are not selected, thank you for your service. OK, let's begin

OK - now US v. Sean Combs jury selection Day 1, here in the courtroom Diddy, in formal dress and wearing reading glasses, has 8 lawyers. Inner City Press wrote books amazon.com/dp/B0DHP7YF19 & books.google.com/books/about?id… and will live tweet, thread below x.com/innercitypress…
All rise!
Judge Subramanian: I have composed a list of prospective jurors who, based in their questionnaire answers, I don't proposed to do individual Q&A with. The list of people and place is so long, I though it was an appendix to Lord of the Rings
[laughter]
Assistant US Attorney: Why don't we have the next juror in line review the binder with court staff, to save that time?
Judge: OK
AUSA: We have given two copies of the binder to your staff.
Judge Subramanian: I assume we'll soon get the thumbs up jurors are ready

and will live tweet, thread below
All rise!
Judge Subramanian: So we have a slew of motions, we'll go through them, then other issues the parties would like to address. Let's start with summary charts at Docket 203 - have you worked that out to moot it?
AUSA: We'll give drafts early
Comb's lawyer Alexandra Shapiro: We will raise issues about specific charts.
Judge: I agree, I'll need to look at them one by one, on a line item basis. So 203 is denied as moot. Now 205, Doctor Hughes. Granted in part and denied in part. Coercive control is out

OK - now at Alien Enemies Act hearing in SDNY on continuing injunction. US has asked to decertify the class - Judge Hellerstein denies it. Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below
Judge Hellerstein: Absent these decisions, people would be removed. Justice Sotomayer has shown the preparations the Government made to remove people. That there would be irreparable harm is obvious. The jails in El Salvador are not appetizing to say the least
Judge Hellerstein: Senator Hollen went and made findings about the conditions... The Supreme Court freezing things will allow the courts to consider these things without danger
DOJ lawyer: The Government disagrees. Aliens are removed all the time
