As counsel on both side sit at their table waiting for the next jury note, here's letter that the defense put in about the transcripts jurors have request so far: "transcripts therefore should reflect exactly what the jury heard" - including sealed Dragonfly Q&A?

Still waiting on jury, only Axel and Storm at defense table; Judge Failla has ruled for US on transcript redactions except "regarding a portion of Mr. Werlau's testimony, the response "It wasn't me" should not be redacted because objection [was on] another issue"

All rise!
Judge: The jury has asked, Did the Gov't have to submit proof of the charges to get indictment? I don't think this is something they should be asking about. I propose to answer, You are not to consider how the US got the indictment

All rise!
Judge: I'll hear on the motion to quash the subpoena.
For Liner Freedman, Ellyn S Garofalo: The Lively parties cite cases where opposition counsel was involved in resolved lawsuits or were involved in the matters are issue. Not the case here

Liner Freedman's Garofalo: Here, they allege an "untraceable" smear campaign. Whether the Liner firm has any relevant documents about communications with content creators is in dispute-
