Any defense lawyer worth their salt would have known everything the prosecution had. It all came from ftx and sbf himself in one form or another. It is very unlikely that anything presented on rebuttal was a surprise.


My comment was replying to the question of whether they’d get it (and similar materials) directly from the prosecution, not whether they’d get it some other way.


If it’s anything like other legal systems, they would have to provide it all in advance. Otherwise you could start using something inadmissible in front of the jury.
