      5 - Joffe "what would a security expert/non DNS expert think of this white paper" email can come in 6 - Anderson/Priestap notes can come in only if Baker’s memory is challenged and then Anderson/Priestap testify they don’t remember the conversations (I think) /c (cont'd)

          9 - No order to immunize Joffe so he'll agree to testify as defense witness, but prosecutors are forbidden from raising whether Joffe’s role in the collection effort was somehow “objectionable” or illegal so judge says maybe he'll choose to testify w/out immunity /e (cont'd)

            Notably, judge declined to hold "a time-consuming & largely unnecessary mini-trial to determine the existence & scope of an uncharged conspiracy to develop and disseminate the Alfa Bank data" & portrayed that theory as foggy. f/end
