Case 1:15-cv-07433-LAP Document 1320-8 Filed 01/03/24 Page 7 of 12 Q. Would you agree with me that Ghislaine Maxwell provides underage girls to Mr. Epstein for sex?

Rafidain Bank, 197 F.R.D. 250, 255 (S.D.N.Y.2000) (finding that attaching a subpoena to the door, and mailing another copy to counsel of record was sufficient). Cases not only from this Court, but also from others in the Second Circuit, have interpreted that rule “liberally” to allow service so long as the “the type of
