B. At A Minimum, This Court Should Order A Hearing At Which Maxwell
May Inquire Into The Circumstances Surrounding The Government's
Misrepresentations To Judge McMahon
If the Court is disinclined to grant relief on the present record, then at a minimum it
should hold an evidentiary hearing to probe the government's misstatements to Judge McMahon
and the extent to which the prosecutor's office had, in fact, coordinated with Boies Schiller prior
to the issuance of the grand jury subpoena. These factual issues go directly to whether the
predicate finding for Judge McMahon's ruling—namely, that no Chemical Bank collusion had
occurred—was mistaken. See, e.g., United States v. Paredes-Cordova, No. SI 03 CR. 987DAB,
2009 WL 1585776, at *1 (S.D.N.Y. June 8, 2009) ("An evidentiary hearing is normally required
to address motions to suppress where a factual issue is in dispute.").
An evidentiary hearing is warranted for an additional reason as well: If it turns out that
the prosecutor knew (or was reckless in not knowing) that Boies Schiller had previously
approached his office, both before and after the Maxwell depositions, in an effort to stir up a
criminal prosecution and dangled the deposition transcripts as a carrot, then suppression would
be warranted on that basis alone. Cf. Franks v. Delaware, 438 U.S. 154, 155-56 (1978); United
States v. Rajaratnani, 719 F.3d 139, 146 (2d Cir. 2013) ("Franks instructs a district court to hold
a hearing to determine whether the alleged misstatements or omissions in the warrant or wiretap
application were made intentionally or with reckless disregard for the truth and, if so, whether
any such misstatements or omissions were material.").
CONCLUSION
For these reasons, this Court should: (1) suppress all evidence the government obtained
from Boies Schiller and any other evidence derived therefrom; or (2) suppress the April and July
2016 depositions and all evidence derived therefrom; and (3) dismiss Counts Five and Six.
Maxwell requests an evidentiary hearing on this Motion.
