In United States v. Combs, S3 24 Cr. 542 (AS), the prosecution submitted a letter to Judge Arun Subramanian alerting the court to anticipated evidentiary and procedural issues related to the upcoming testimony of Lance Jimenez, a key government witness expected to take the stand as early as Monday, May 27. The letter serves as a preemptive notice to streamline courtroom proceedings and mitigate potential objections or delays during Jimenez’s examination. The government likely outlines the scope of Jimenez’s testimony, which may touch on sensitive or contested areas, and provides legal justification for the inclusion of certain pieces of evidence or lines of questioning they intend to pursue.

The filing also appears to be a tactical move to prevent surprises and bolster the admissibility of what could be pivotal testimony in establishing patterns of behavior or corroborating other witnesses’ claims. By addressing these matters in advance, prosecutors aim to minimize disruptions during trial and reinforce the integrity of Jimenez’s testimony within the broader evidentiary framework. The letter underscores the government's intent to methodically build its case while anticipating and countering defense efforts to exclude or diminish the impact of Jimenez’s statements.
