I’ve said for a while now the government is terrified of these depositions as there is nothing to them more dangerous than a former employee who will only be looking out for himself. This is why they have done everything possible to prevent them from happening and them from what is discovered in them from being used.
Sweeney will not let the government suppress this evidence.

Furthermore, Plaintiffs are prejudiced by the fact that, as things currently stand, they cannot use the information in the Depositions in their case challenging the Net Worth Sweep in the D.C. Circuit (or in any other case in which they may participate in the future, for that matter). As explained below, this prejudice is particularly acute because Mr. Ugoletti’s testimony calls into question evidence submitted by FHFA in the district court.
