So .. is the prosecution just buring the defence in digital paperwork?
Remember when TDev's attorney said that the volume of discovery was equal to 75% of the Library of Congress, or that, if stacked, it would reach from earth to the moon 22 times?
The Government since added two new batches of discovery – now totaling 17 terabytes – and is in the process of providing an additional batch to Rodriguez' defense in the next seven days.
To give the defense more time to sort through the available information, the next hearing has been postponed until March 12th.
The trial date has been set for Nov 3rd 2025.

Time honored tradition in law. 🫂
But if the government withholds any evidence they have and it turns out to be exculpable they'll lose the case. So IIUC they don't really have a choice, once evidence is collected they have to share it.
My understanding is that the bigger problem is that you don't know in advance which evidence they're actually going to use and so you have to prepare for every possibility.
