I'm still in court waiting for the gov't to say whether they're going to call rebuttal witnesses. The attorneys are arguing over jury instructions and a prosecutor says it depends on the language in an 'adverse inference' instruction. Good grief, really drawing this thing out.

The judge just ruled that a jury instruction Balwani's counsel requested is inappropriate, b/c the gov't didn't lose or destroy the LIS database - "they never had it. they were never able to get into it" (The judge actually already ruled on this before & yet here we are again)

Elizabeth Holmes' defense largely hung on her abuse claims. Balwani's appears to hang on a encrypted Theranos database that can't be unlocked. Trial closings kick off Tuesday.
