Of course, Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 can participate in this litigated effort to vindicate the rights of similarly situated victims — there is no requirement that the evidentiary proof submitted in this case come only from the named parties. Petitioners point out as much, noting that, regardless of whether this Court grants the Rule 15 Motion, \"they will call Jane Doe No. 3 as a witness at any trial.\" (DE 311 at 17 n.7). The necessary \"participation\" of Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 in this case can be satisfied by offering their properly supported and relevant, admissible, and non-cumulative testimony as needed, whether through testimony at trial (see DE 280 at 9) or affidavits submitted to support the relevancy of discovery requests4 (see 4 The non-party Jane Does clearly understand how to submit affidavits.
