Lawyers gather in court for the NSA contractor accused in top secret leak, Reality Winner, on June 27. Richard Miller

Attorney Titus Nichols told reporters outside court Tuesday afternoon that the discussion over the order centered on both sides knowing the rules of engagement regarding any potentially classified information.

That way if there is any type of information that is classified at any level, that everyone knows what the rules of engagement will be, so there is not going to be a risk of accidental release of information and definitely not going to be any intentional release of information thats classified, he said.

Prosecutor Jennifer Solari said during the hearing that a note pad with handwriting in Farsi was being reviewed and translated. Nichols told reporters after the hearing that the defense had not seen the notebook and thus was not able to discuss anything about it at the time.

Prosecutors are also examining two computers, hard drives, a tablet and four phones seized from Winner. They agreed to have all evidence discovery filed by August 25.

Nichols added that Winner was maintaining pretty well and that every conversation he had had with her has been positive, as his client remains in jail awaiting her trial.

Earlier this month,

Terry Pickard reported from Augusta, Georgia, and Daniella Silva reported from New York.
