Court Filing - Reply Memorandum: 224

The reply memorandum argues that Counts 5 and 6 (perjury charges) are improperly joined with Counts 1-4 (Mann Act charges) in the superseding indictment and should be severed for a separate trial. The defendant contends that the joinder is improper due to the lack of a logical connection between the counts and the potential for prejudicial evidence.
