Ghislaine Maxwell has pleaded not guilty to helping Epstein recruit and groom underage girls for sex in the 1990s.

US District Judge Loretta Preska in Manhattan directed that a transcript of Maxwell’s testimony and other documents be released by 9am EDT on Thursday. Preska had earlier on Tuesday ordered an immediate unsealing of the April 2016 deposition, but pushed back the timetable after Maxwell’s lawyers objected. The judge said lawyers for Maxwell and Giuffre should in the meantime work out any disputes.

Lawyers for Maxwell had argued that the deposition contained intimate and sensitive information, and that releasing it would violate her right against self-incrimination and could generate negative publicity imperilling her ability to get a fair trial.
