ORDER GRANTING IN PART AND DENYING IN PART THE GOVERNMENT'S MOTION IN LIMINE REGARDING THE CROSS-EXAMINATION OF KIARA HOBBS (ECF #110)
MATTHEW F. LEITMAN, District Judge.
On October 4, 2016, the government filed a "Motion In Limine Regarding the Cross-examination of Kiara Hobbs" (the "Motion"). (ECF #110.) The Court held a hearing on the Motion on January 27, 2017. For the reasons stated on the record at the January 27, 2017 hearing, the Motion is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART. Defendants are permitted to elicit on cross-examination whether Kiara Hobbs participated in a car-jacking, whether she was criminally charged for carjacking, whether she entered into a cooperation agreement with the government, whether her car-jacking charge was dismissed, and whether she falsely held herself out as a prostitute during the car-jacking. In response to this line of questioning, the government may ask questions directed at clarifying the scope of Kiara Hobbs' role in the car-jacking, but the government may not elicit testimony regarding the identity of any other persons involved in the car-jacking. Prior to the time that Kiara Hobbs testifies, the government shall advise her not to identify in any manner the other individuals involved in the car-jacking. Kiara Hobbs is not permitted to disclose the identity of any individual who participated in the car-jacking unless the Court expressly allows her to do so.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
