Dear Sirs,
Thank you for the letter attached to the email below.
During the Christmas holiday period you will appreciate that it has been difficult to take instructions. The article under
complaint was generated by the MailOnline's New York office. We understand from them that the claims made about
your client were made in open court. A number of US publications have reported those claims on the basis that they were
made during a hearing. We note, for example, that the New York Daily News says the claims were 'included in a public
transcript available in Manhattan Federal Court'. The same publication also makes reference to Laura Menninger, the
attorney for Ghislaine Maxwell, also referencing the claim that Ms Ransome was directed to have sex with your client
during a hearing on 7 November.
We can see no mention in your letter of 21 December to the claims you have complained about being made in a court.
Please could you therefore clarify your client's position in relation to whether the allegations contained in the MailOnline
report were made under the protection of privilege.
Yours faithfully,
Martin Wood
