OK - now will live tweet below a hearing in Giuffre v. Alan Dershowitz, civil case heavy with #GhislaineMaxwell (sentenced to 20 years, appealing) & #JeffreyEpstein (compared here with... #RKelly, whose "associate" Don Russell is on trial: matthewrussellleeicp.substack.com/p/r-kelly-and-…

Judge Preska: Good morning! Sorry to start late, I had a sentencing. I suggest we do the protective order things at the end, and we'll seal it. Have you spoken about the impeachment issue?
Counsel: We were unable to reach agreement.

Counsel: Impeachment is not limited to initial disclosures but applies equally to pre-trial disclosures. By and large, impeachment material was produced.
Howard Cooper: I had laptop problems... This is a first for me, to have a line in a confidential letter cited

After a long silence:
Judge Preska: Sorry to delay you again, I had to get a report on [voluntarily redacted]. I say the tax returns have to be produced. If they are used at trial, you must confer.
Counsel: You ordered the returns produced to show loss of income

Dershowitz' lawyer: Mr. Dershowitz has offered to waive the loss of income claim. So how is there a compelling need for these return? Ms. Giuffre was allowed to amend her complaint to avoid discovery.

Charles Cooper: Ms. Moss is on the way to Perth for Ms. Giuffre's deposition.
Judge Preska: I stick to my ruling that the tax returns be produced. The rest of this proceeding will be closed and sealed.
