| information, then the lawyers present arguments to your Honor |
| 2 |
| and |
| say, 'Wait a minute. |
| Some of the things that are in the |
| 3 |
| report aren't relevant to the case and, in fact, are going to |
| 4 be highly |
| prejudicial for the jury.' That's why we're here |
| 5 this morning asking for some of those things to be excluded. |
| 6 |
| For example, there are some references -- I won't |
| 7 |
| belabor the point -- but the references that we're making to |
| 8 |
| some of the illegal drug usage and so forth, that's not |
| 9 |
| something |
| we're trying to deploy affirmatively. The good |
| 10 |
| doctor |
| simply listed all of the information that had been |
| 11 |
| recited |
| as part of his report so that the lawyers and the judge |
| 12 |
| can now make a determination. |
| 13 |
| And the fact that Ms. Giuffre told Dr. Kliman in a |
| 14 |
| confidential psychiatric examination certain things about drug |
| 15 |
| use can't possibly go to her reputation because no one was |
| 16 |
| there who was assessing |
| what kinds of things might be going |
| on. |
| 17 |
| A similar point can be made about tax fraud. We're |
| 18 |
| told, "Well, your Honor, tax fraud goes to her reputation." I |
| 19 |
| suppose that goes to her reputation with some IRS agent who is |
| 20 |
| looking at a return, but it can't possibly go to a general |
| 21 |
| reputation that is at issue in this |
| case. |
| 22 |
| And once again, the cases that we cite in our briefs I |
| 23 |
| think make this point clear, there is a vast risk of |
| 24 |
| prejudicial effect to Ms. Giuffre because the jury is going to |
| 25 |
| think, oh, she's a tax cheat, and they're going to hold that |
