The document is a letter from the United States Attorney's Office to Judge Alison J. Nathan, arguing that the court should require the defense to show prior inconsistent statements to witnesses before impeaching them with extrinsic evidence, pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 613(b). The government also argues that if a witness admits making an inconsistent statement, further extrinsic evidence is unnecessary. The letter is in response to a court order in the case of United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell.
