COURTHOUSE,
May 13 – A man previously
convicted of a felony was
arrested and charged with
trying to bring ammunition
into the U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York.
On May 13
his Federal Defender opposed
the prosecutors' proposed
restriction on how he can use
discovery material, including
video of the security
arrangements in SDNY. Inner
City Press was there,
tweet.
Judge Rakoff heard from other
sides about the protective
order, then asked for two
letters on it, say he will
rule before the deadline for
discovery. At the next
conference, he said, he will
set a trial date.
The
AUSA disclosed that he had
clerked for Judge Rakoff, who
officiated over his wedding.
Judge Rakoff said he will not
socialize with his former
clerk during this case - and
joked that after he rules, the
prosecutor may want to never
speak with him again.
The case is USA v.
Banyan, 1:25-cr-208 (Rakoff)
