The sharp contrast between the government's actions in this Jane Doe civil matter, and the Annie Farmer civil matter, the Giuffre matter, and the Ransome matter also establish a strong inference that as long as the government stood to gain a tactical advantage by delaying the indictment (the sought-after deposition in the Farmer civil litigation), it would not move to intervene. However, where the government's tactical advantage was lost or threatened (Jane Doe) it would shut the case down.\n\nCONCLUSION\n\nMs. Maxwell requests that the Court dismiss the Indictment because of the prejudicial and tactical delay by the government in prosecuting this case.\n\n19\nDOJ-OGR-00002527",
