                              UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
                              EASTERN DISTRICT OF MISSOURI
                                    EASTERN DIVISION

                                 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
        Before the Court is Defendants’ Motion for Production Pursuant to Subpoena to Enterprise
Bank to be Made before Trial, Doc. [296]. Under Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 17(c)(1), the
Court “may order [a] witness to produce any books, papers, documents, data, or other objects the
subpoena designates” and “may direct the witness to produce the designated items in court before
trial or before they are to be offered in evidence.” Defendants seek such an order requiring
Enterprise Bank to produce documents related to three of Defendants’ loans. The motion is granted.
See United States v. Nixon, 418 U.S. 683, 699-700 (1974). The Court finds that that information is
relevant. Defendants have made a sufficient showing that they are unable to procure all the
requested materials in advance of trial. See Doc. [303] at 2. Production of the requested documents
before trial will allow Defendants to prepare for trial and avoid delays, and the Court finds that the
request is made in good faith and not as a “fishing expedition.” See Nixon, 418 U.S. at 700.
        Accordingly,
        IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion for Production Pursuant to Subpoena
to Enterprise Bank to be Made before Trial, Doc. [296], is GRANTED.
        IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Enterprise Bank must provide the responsive
documents to the Court by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, August 16, 2024.
        IT IS FINALLY ORDERED The parties may inspect the documents on Monday, August
19, 2024. The Court will discuss the details on the inspection with the parties at the pretrial
conference on August 15, 2024.
        Dated this 14th day of August, 2024.
