In this case, TGP (The Gateway Pundit) requested to intervene and unseal the Epstein client list in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. However, the District Court denied the motion on the grounds that TGP’s request was not made in a timely manner and that TGP’s interests were already represented by existing parties and intervenors.
TGP appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, arguing that the District Court abused its discretion by not granting TGP’s motion to intervene. They also claimed that the District Court failed to promptly unseal documents that likely contained the Epstein client list.
