Everdell +1 (212) 957-7600 ceverdell@cohengresser.com November 20, 2021 The Honorable Alison J. Nathan United States District Court Southern District of New York United States Courthouse 40 Foley Square New York, NY 10007 Re: United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell, S2 20 Cr. 330 (AJN) Dear Judge Nathan: On behalf of our client, Ghislaine Maxwell, we respectfully submit this letter in response to the government's letter motion, dated November 11, 2021, requesting that the Court find that the birth certificates for the alleged Minor Victims (GX 11 through GX-16) are self-authenticating under the Federal Rules of Evidence. We have reviewed the government's submission and, in the interests of facilitating an efficient trial, we are prepared to stipulate to the authenticity of the birth certificates for alleged Minor Victim-1 (GX-12), Minor Victim-2 (GX-13), Minor Victim-4 (GX-11), Minor Victim-5 (GX-14), and Minor Victim-6 (GX-15). We will coordinate with the government to produce an appropriately worded stipulation as to the authenticity of these exhibits. However, the government itself concedes that it has not yet proffered a sufficient foundation to authenticate the birth certificate of Witness-3 (GX-16). See 11/11/2021 Gov't Ltr. at 1 n.2. According to GX-16, Witness-3 was born . In order for such a record to be self-authenticating as a foreign public document, the government must meet the requirements of Rule 902(3) of the Federal Rules of Evidence, which it has not yet done. The DOJ-OGR-00007407",
