United States, 491 U.S. 617, 633 (1989) (citations omitted). \"The right of an accused in a criminal trial to due process is, in essence, the right to a fair opportunity to defend against the State's accusations. The rights to confront and cross-examine witnesses and to call witnesses in one's own behalf have long been recognized as essential to due process.\" Chambers v. Mississippi, 410 U.S. 284, 294 (1973). And as noted, the defendant cites no legal authority supporting the proposition that the Government's actions during its investigation have somehow deprived her of a fair trial or otherwise violated her due process rights. In short, none of Maxwell's allegations of misconduct rises to the level of a due process violation.\n\nDismissal of Counts Five and Six of the Indictment would be all the more unwarranted here, where there was no outrageous Government misconduct and where the defendant cannot show that the Government's behavior prejudiced her defense or legal representation. Similarly, because there was no misconduct by the Government, there is no basis to suppress the evidence obtained pursuant to the subpoena. The defendant's motion—unsupported by the law and the facts—must be denied.\n\n5. The Court Should Not Exercise Its Inherent Authority to Order Suppression\n\nThe defendant urges the Court to exercise its inherent authority to order suppression. This Court should decline the defendant's invitation to exercise this sparingly used power.\n\na.
