EDNY MEDIA ROOM,
Oct 21 –
Thomas Barrack
and Matthew
Grimes,
indicted for
illegal
lobbying for
the United
Arab Emirates,
were arraigned
on July 26,
2021 before
U.S. District
Court for the
Eastern
District of
New York
Magistrate
Judge Sanket
Bulsara. Inner
City Press
live tweeted
it here
(and podcast here)
On
October 21,
the defense
called as a witness
Brady Cassis,
an
associate at
Paul Hasting
in DC. He was
present and
took laptop
notes at the
June 20, 2019
DOJ interview
of Barrack.
But the US
immediately
opposed admission
of the notes
that he took.
Judge Brian
M. Cogan sent
the jurors to
the jury room
in order to
hear argument.
At 2:22
pm,
Judge Cogan said
he would be
admitting the
notes, and
allowing
cross-examination
on the issues.
Then it was said,
We are not
getting to Mr.
Barrack's
testimony
today. Watch

Analysis:
Because of the
possibility of
(success)
appeal to any
conviction
under Section
951, on
a claim
that the jurors
confused it
with FARA, the
attempt is
made to keep
FARA out of testimony
as much as
possible. But what
about
the jury
instructions?
