In this filing, the defense team for Sean “Diddy” Combs renews its motion to exclude certain summary charts the government intends to introduce as evidence under Federal Rule of Evidence 1006. The defense argues that these charts are not neutral summaries of voluminous records—as Rule 1006 requires—but rather argumentative presentations designed to convey the government’s interpretation of the evidence. They point to a prior concession by the government acknowledging that the charts are not intended to prove specific facts, but to help “present the government’s theory,” which the defense contends renders them inherently prejudicial and inadmissible. The defense notes that while the court previously reserved judgment pending a review of the government’s draft charts, the newly submitted versions confirm their earlier concerns.
The defense further emphasizes that these charts violate the spirit and letter of Rule 1006, which was designed to allow juries to more easily digest large volumes of data—not to serve as vehicles for a party’s argument. By framing the charts as interpretive rather than objective, the defense argues that the government is improperly using visual aids to bolster its narrative in a way that is likely to mislead the jury and unfairly prejudice Mr. Combs. They assert that this tactic runs counter to guidance from the Rules Advisory Committee, which warns against using summary evidence to argue a party’s case rather than present underlying facts. On these grounds, the defense requests that the court preclude the government from introducing the proposed summary exhibits at trial.
