The government estimates that we will substantially complete our production in the next two to three weeks with the exception, your Honor, of the devices that were seized on March 15th, 2023. The logistics of extracting and processing those devices for production will take somewhat longer. We are going to be producing those on a rolling basis, in fact we expect to produce an additional 16 devices, hopefully by the end of this week. But, to complete all of those devices, we anticipate it will take up to eight weeks.\n\nWe also note, your Honor, that our investigation is ongoing and we expect to be acquiring additional materials as we continue to investigate. We will, of course, produce those materials as is appropriate to do so on a rolling basis.\n\nTHE COURT: Are there any applications?\n\nMR. FINKEL: So, your Honor, in terms of the order of business for today, I think that the Court, if it chooses to do so, should set a pretrial motion schedule and potentially a trial date. With respect to a trial date, the government estimates a case-in-chief of approximately four weeks. We anticipate that the defense, but don't know for sure, that the defense will also have a case which obviously would extend the length of a trial.\n\nThe government is sort of looking at, of course\n\n SOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C. (212) 805-0300\n\n25\n\n1\n\naccording to the Court's availability and schedule, the second week in March. We think that would enable enough time for discovery to be completed, the defense to review the discovery, and the defense to file any pretrial motions. In addition, your Honor, with respect to pretrial motions as we have notified your clerk, the government would ask to submit its ex parte CIPA brief on December 15, 2023. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7\n\nTHE COURT: The Court will not be able to start trial until April the 8th and you are expecting about four weeks for the case-in-chief.\n\n8\n\n9\n\n10\n\n13\n\n14\n\n15\n\n16\n\n17\n\n20\n\n21\n\nFrom the defense, would you be able to make an April 8 date for trial? 11 12\n\nMR. COOK: Yes, your Honor, we could make an April 8 date, however we would request the earliest possible trial date. My client wants a speedy trial and would request a trial date along the lines of what we proposed to the Court earlier in April.\n\nTHE COURT: I am setting the trial for April 8. How long do you think your portion would last? 18 19\n\n> MR. COOK: Two to three weeks, your Honor. THE COURT: All right.\n\nWith respect to a CIPA motion, you have requested what date for submission? 22 23\n\nMR. FINKEL: December 15, your Honor. THE COURT: You shall submit that by December 15th. 24 25\n\n> SOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C. (212) 805-0300\n\nAnything further, further applications? MR. FINKEL: Well, your Honor, the government would move to exclude time until April 8, and in addition, ask that the Court set a pretrial motion schedule for the defense for pretrial motions, motions other than motions in limine in advance of trial. The government believes such motions should be scheduled to be submitted by the defense in the fall, to make sure there is enough time for the government to respond to what it expects to be voluminous motions, and the Court has had an opportunity to review them and, if necessary, schedule a hearing. THE COURT: When can you have your motions ready? MR. COOK: Your Honor, I believe November 15th would be sufficient time. THE COURT: How long for the government's opposition? MR. FINKEL: Your Honor, the government asks for three weeks. THE COURT: All right, then. So the opening brief on November the 15th; opposition papers on the 6th of December; and the reply on the 20th of December. Anything further? MR. COOK: Yes, your Honor. We filed a letter motion regarding laptop access to discovery for our client. It is currently pending before your 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24\n\nHonor.

We intend on having further discussions with the Bureau of Prisons, however we believe that it would be helpful in those discussions if we had some sense from the Court that access to a laptop for both the defendants while in BOP and MDC, given the volume of discovery, would be deemed appropriate. I am not asking for an advisory opinion but just a sense from the Court that that would be permissible.\n\nTHE COURT: I will hear from the government.\n\nMR. FINKEL: So, your Honor, we defer to the Court in terms of what the Court prefers here. The government has engaged with BOP and helped facilitate communications between the defense and BOP and will continue to do so.\n\nWe understand from BOP that there are several procedures that defendants should undertake before laptops are provided, that's BOP's position. The government will help ensure that the defense can facilitate those steps in order to reach the point, if at all, that a laptop should be provided.\n\nSo our view, your Honor, is we take no position on this, other than we will continue to help the defendants and their counsel facilitate access to discovery in BOP.\n\nTHE COURT: So you are asking for something which is outside of the normal BOP protocol? 22 23\n\nMR. COOK: Correct, your Honor. The BOP procedure, as we understand it, first of all, is they simply decline those 24 25\n\n> SOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C.

That will not be sufficient time for my client to review the voluminous discovery in this case. In addition, they require a showing, as I understand it, of inability for my client to sufficiently review material on the MDC provided computer. That will take time. Apparently they want to show that over a period of weeks he has been unable to access it sufficiently. We know already it is not sufficient and we are trying to expedite the process.\n\nTHE COURT: I am persuaded by what you have said and so I am going to grant the application.\n\nMR. COOK: Thank you, your Honor.\n\nTHE COURT: Anything further?\n\nMR. FINKEL: There are two other agenda items.\n\nFirst, your Honor, defendant Wang filed a motion for bail yesterday, I believe. The government would like until June 20th to respond to that. We discussed that with Ms. Chaudhry. I don't believe there is objection to it. Ms. Chaudhry, I understand, would also like an opportunity to reply. And then the second piece of business, your Honor, is the government moves to exclude time until April 8, 2024, so that the defendants may have an opportunity to review discovery, prepare for trial, contemplate motion practice, and discuss potential dispositions with the government. 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24\n\nTHE COURT: So is it the case that you don't oppose\n\n SOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C.

(212) 805-0300\n\n份文件，以及超过200万页。我们已经提供了依据搜查令提取的大约37台电子设备的数据。政府预计除2023年3月15日扣押的设备外，我们将在未来两到三周内基本完成证据开示制作，法官阁下。提取和处理这些设备以供开示制作的相关流程需要稍长一些时间。我们将采取滚动方式提供这些材料，事实上我们预计在最快本周末之前再提供另外16台设备的数据。但是，要完成所有这些设备的处理，我们预计最多需要八周时间。\n\n法官阁下，我们还提请注意，我们的调查仍在进行中，并且我们预计随着调查的继续将会获取更多材料。当然，我们将在适当时以滚动方式提供这些材料。\n\n法庭：是否有任何申请？\n\n芬克尔先生：那么，法官阁下，就今天的议程安排而言，我认为法庭如果选择这样做的话，应当设定审前动议日程，并可能确定一个庭审日期。关于庭审日期，政府估计控方的主案举证阶段大约需要四周时间。我们预计辩方——但尚不能确定——辩方也将进行举证，这显然会延长庭审的时长。\n\n政府大体上考虑的是，当然\n\nSOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C. (212) 805-0300\n根据法庭的空档和日程安排，定在3月的第二周。我们认为这将留出足够的时间来完成证据开示、辩方审阅开示证据，以及辩方提出任何审前动议。此外，法官阁下，关于审前动议，正如我们向您的法庭书记员通报的那样，政府请求于2023年12月15日提交其单方面的CIPA（机密信息程序法）书面陈述意见。\n\n法庭：法庭在4月8日之前无法开庭，而你们预计主案举证阶段大约需要四周。\n请问辩方，你们能否赶在4月8日这一日期开庭？\n\n库克先生：可以的，法官阁下，我们可以配合4月8日的日期，但是我们请求尽可能早的开庭日期。我的当事人希望获得快速审判，并请求按照我们早先向法庭提议的方案，在4月尽早开庭。\n\n法庭：我将庭审定在4月8日。你们认为你们辩护部分需要多长时间？\n\n库克先生：两到三周，法官阁下。法庭：好的。\n\n关于CIPA动议，你们请求在哪一天提交？\n\n芬克尔先生：法官阁下，12月15日。法庭：你们应在12月15日之前提交。\n\nSOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C. (212) 805-0300\n\n还有其他事项、其他申请吗？芬克尔先生：嗯，法官阁下，政府动议将计算期限排除至4月8日，此外，请求法庭为辩方的审前动议设定日程，即审前开庭前提出的除预先排除证据动议之外的动议。政府认为该等动议应安排在秋季由辩方提交，以确保政府有足够的时间对预计卷帙浩繁的动议作出答辩，并使法庭有机会予以审阅并在必要时安排听证会。法庭：你们何时可以准备好动议？库克先生：法官阁下，我认为11月15日时间足够。法庭：政府需要多长时间提交反对意见？芬克尔先生：法官阁下，政府请求给予三周时间。法庭：好的，那就这样。首份书面动议于11月15日提交；反对意见书于12月6日提交；答复意见书于12月20日提交。还有其他事项吗？库克先生：有的，法官阁下。我们提交了一份关于允许我们的当事人使用笔记本电脑查阅开示证据的信函动议。该动议目前正等待\n\n法官阁下的裁决。我们已向BOP（联邦监狱管理局）送达了该文件。我们只是想\n\nSOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C. (212) 805-0300\n向法官阁下提出该问题，我们已经与政府进行了讨论。我们打算与联邦监狱管理局进行进一步的沟通，然而我们认为，在这些沟通中，如果我们能从法庭获得某种倾向意见，即鉴于开示证据的体量，两名被告在BOP和MDC（大都会拘留中心）羁押期间使用笔记本电脑被认为是恰当的，将对沟通大有助益。我并非请求作出咨询性意见，而只是希望法庭表态这是否属于被允许的情形。\n\n法庭：我听听政府的意见。\n\n芬克尔先生：法官阁下，关于法庭在此事上的倾向，我们听从法庭的决定。政府已与BOP接洽并协助促进了辩方与BOP之间的沟通，并将继续这样做。\n\n我们从BOP处了解到，在提供笔记本电脑之前被告应当履行几项程序，这是BOP的立场。政府将协助确保辩方能够促成这些步骤的进行，以期达到提供笔记本电脑的阶段（如果确实可行的话）。\n\n因此，法官阁下，我们的观点是对此不持立场，除我们将继续协助被告及其律师便利其在BOP查阅开示证据之外。\n\n法庭：所以你们所请求的事项超出了BOP的常规规程？\n\n库克先生：正是如此，法官阁下。据我们了解，BOP的规程首先是，他们对这类请求\n\nSOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C. (212) 805-0300\n一概予以拒绝，除非是紧临审判之前为了审阅《美国法典》第18篇第3500条材料的目的。这对于我的当事人审阅本案海量的开示证据来说时间是不够的。此外，据我了解，他们要求证明我的当事人无法在MDC提供的电脑上充分审阅材料。这需要时间。显然他们希望证明在数周的时间里他一直无法充分使用电脑。我们已经知道这并不足够，而我们正在试图加快这一进程。\n\n法庭：你所说的情况说服了我，因此我准许这项申请。\n\n库克先生：谢谢您，法官阁下。\n\n法庭：还有其他事项吗？\n\n芬克尔先生：还有两项日程事项。\n\n第一项，法官阁下，我想被告Wang（王）昨天提交了一份保释动议。政府希望在6月20日之前对此作出答辩。我们已经与Chaudhry（乔杜里）女士讨论了此事。我认为对此没有异议。据我了解，乔杜里女士也希望有机会提交答复意见。然后第二项事务，法官阁下，政府动议将计算期限排除至2024年4月8日，以便被告有机会审阅开示证据、准备庭审、考虑动议事宜，并与政府讨论潜在的案件处置方案。\n\n法庭：这么说来你们并不反对\n\nSOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C.
