court filing: 2020-0088630
The document is a court filing arguing that a motion related to Juror 50 should remain sealed to protect Ms. Maxwell's right to a fair trial.

The filing cites relevant case law to support the argument that the motion should be temporarily sealed until the court rules on it or completes any additional fact-finding process.
