to a search warrant on April

Attorney's Office for the Southern
District of
New York docketed
a copy of their letter to SDNY
Judge J. Paul Oetken with many
redactions, including of the

Oetken, a less redacted
letter, specifying that 18

purported to redact portions
about the targets of the
warrants against Giuliani and
Giuliani Partners:
"In a chart, the
Government identified that it
had sought and seized a variety
of undisclosed materials from
multiple individuals, including:
the iCloud and e-mail accounts
of Rudolph Giuliani (11/04/19);

Toensing (11/04/19); an email
account believed to belong to
former Prosecutor General of
Ukraine, Yuriy Lutsenko
(11/6/19); an e-mail account
believed to belong to the former
head of the Ukrainian Fiscal
Service, Roman Nasirov
(12/10/19); the e-mail account
of Victoria Toensing (12/13/19);
the iPhone and iPad of pro-Trump
Ukrainian businessman Alexander
