Mathew, hereby joins in the Motion for Disclosure of Agent Personnel Files filed by defendant John Desiderio. The Government has also designated Special Agent, Nora Kollas and Special Agent, Julie Healferty as expert witnesses in this case. (See attached as Exhibit "A".) Disclosure of the personnel files is even more appropriate since the Government has attempted to designate these two agents as expert witnesses, placing their qualifications to give opinion testimony and issue.
