Ghislaine Maxwell filed a formal motion in January 2024 seeking sanctions under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 37(b) and 37(c), arguing that Virginia Giuffre had failed to comply with both a court-ordered discovery directive and Rule 26(a) disclosure requirements. Maxwell's team, led by attorney Laura Menninger, detailed repeated instances in which Giuffre withheld or failed to fully disclose critical medical records and the identities of treating health providers—information essential to assessing her claims for emotional and physical distress. They characterized these omissions as intentional and willful, highlighting Giuffre’s failure to identify providers like Dr. Lightfoot in Australia, among others, despite clear court orders and confirmations made during an April 21, 2016 hearing.

Maxwell contended these violations had prejudiced her defense and undermined the integrity of the discovery process—arguing that lesser sanctions would be insufficient. Her motion sought a range of potential consequences under Rule 37(b), such as preclusion of Giuffre’s damages claims or striking portions of her case, as well as cost-shifting remedies available under Rule 37(c), including attorney’s fees and possibly an adverse inference against Giuffre. The motion emphasized that Giuffre and her counsel were well aware of the consequences of non-compliance and that her continued delays and omissions should trigger serious sanctions.
