    UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT


    SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
    WEST PALM BEACH DIVISION

    CASE NO. 23-80101-CR-CANNON

    UNITED STATES,

    Plaintiff,

    vs.

    DONALD J. TRUMP,
    WALTINE NAUTA, and
    CARLOS DE OLIVEIRA,

    Defendants.
    ____________________________________/

    ORDER STRIKING SEALED FILINGS AND ORDERING BRIEFING

    THIS MATTER comes before the Court upon the Special Counsel’s Motion for a Garcia

    Hearing [ECF No. 97] and related filings [ECF Nos. 95, 96 (Sealed)]. It is ORDERED AND

    ADJUDGED as follows:

    1. The Special Counsel moves [ECF No. 97] for a Garcia hearing to inquire into

    “potential conflicts of interests that may arise from attorney Stanley Woodward, Jr.’s

    prior and current representation of three individuals the Government may call to testify

    at the trial of his client Waltine Nauta” [ECF No. 97 p. 1]. Simultaneously, the Special

    Counsel moves for leave [ECF No. 95] to file under seal a “Supplement” containing

    additional information “to facilitate the Court’s inquiry” [ECF No. 96; see ECF No. 97

    p. 2 n.2, p. 6]. The Special Counsel states in conclusory terms that the supplement

    should be sealed from public view “to comport with grand jury secrecy,” but the motion

    CASE NO. 23-80101-CR-CANNON

    for leave and the supplement plainly fail to satisfy the burden of establishing a

    sufficient legal or factual basis to warrant sealing the motion and supplement.

    2. The Special Counsel’s motion for leave to file under seal [ECF No. 95] is DENIED.

    3. The Clerk is directed to STRIKE from the docket sealed entries 95 and 96.

    4. Waltine Nauta shall file a response to the Motion for a Garcia hearing [ECF No. 97]

    on or before August 17, 2023. Among other topics as raised in the Motion, the

    response shall address the legal propriety of using an out-of-district grand jury

    proceeding to continue to investigate and/or to seek post-indictment hearings on

    matters pertinent to the instant indicted matter in this district. The Special Counsel

    shall respond to that discussion in a Reply in Support of the Motion [ECF No. 97], due

    on or before August 22, 2023. The remaining Defendants may, but are not required

    to, file briefs of their own related to the grand jury issue referenced herein, but any such

    briefs are due by August 17, 2023, and may be submitted in combined or individual

    fashion. 1

    DONE AND ORDERED in Chambers in Fort Pierce, Florida, this 7th day of August 2023.
