UNITED STATES,
v. 16 Cr. 832 (KMK)
NICHOLAS TARTAGLIONE,
Defendant.
X
Kenneth M. ICaras, District Judge:
WHEREAS, the Bureau of Prisons ("BOP") has certain procedures
in place to protect the workings of its institutions;
WHEREAS, the defendant, by and through counsel, has raised the
concern that certain of the GOP's procedures have the potential to result in defense
strategy and attorney work product being revealed to the Government in
circumvention of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and the Criminal
Justice Act;
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED:
1. The BOP shall be prohibited from providing to Federal
prosecutors the originals and/or copies of any written communication designated
"attorney work-product" sent by members of the defense team to BOP staff at the
MCC, MDC, or any other facility in which Nicholas Tartaglione (#78514-054)
might be held prior to trial in this case. To facilitate the secure implementation
of this prohibition, the BOP shall not place such materials in Mr. Tartaglione's

"central inmate file."
2. The BOP shall be prohibited from providing to Federal
prosecutors the originals and/or copies of visitation logs related to "attorney
visits" and/or "legal visits" of Nicholas Tartaglione (#78514-054); this includes
visits to Mr. Tartaglione by defense counsel or other members of the defense team
such as investigators, mitigation specialists, experts, consultants, and mitigation
witnesses. (This proscription does not include "social visits," which are
memorialized in a separate visitation log.)
3. To the extent the United States Attorney's Office is already
in the possession of the type of communications and visitation logs addressed
above, then the Government should immediately disclose all such material to Mr.
Tartaglione so that the defense may then ascertain whether to seek relief under
Rule 12 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure.
4. Should Mr. Tartaglione be transferred to a non-BOP facility such
as the Westchester County Correctional Facility in Valhalla, New York, this Order
should be interpreted to maintain the same effect.
