The Court is in receipt of the Government’s, Administrator and two anticipated witnesses’ motions to quash the Defendant’s Rule 17(c)(3) subpoena. Dkt. No. 486. The motions to quash are DENIED.’¶
The Court hereby ORDERS the Administrator of the Epstein Victims’ Compensation Program to produce to the Court via electronic thumb drive any materials responsive to the subpoena as soon as possible, but no later than 12:00 p.m. on November 24, 2021.¶
Upon receipt, the Court will determine whether the parties may “inspect all or part” of the materials. Fed. R. Crim. P. I 7(c)(I ). In that event, the Court may determine that an appropriate protective order is necessary for the parties’ review of some or all of the materials. Review under a protective order may better facilitate the review process of the narrow, specific, and targeted materials and may better ensure no trial delay, as compared to a review process solely by the Court. Accordingly, the parties shall negotiate a protective order and submit the proposal for approval by the Court no later than 12:00 p.m. on November 24, 2021.¶
SO ORDERED.¶
{sup}' Administrator request for oral argument is accordingly denied.¶
