WHEREAS to effectuate that order, it is necessary to prohibit courtroom sketch artists from drawing exact likenesses of the Protected Witnesses;

IT HEREBY IS ORDERED:

  2. For avoidance of doubt, courtroom sketch artists may confer with the Court or counsel for either party to determine whether a witness is a Protected Witness.

SO ORDERED:

Dated: New York, New York November , 2021

HONORABLE ALISON J. NATHAN United States District Judge
