Two 2016 depositions of Ghislaine Maxwell in a civil case in which she was repeatedly questioned about financier Jeffrey Epstein's sexual activities can be used at her criminal trial this year over the objections of her lawyers, a judge ruled Friday.

U.S. District Judge Alison J. Nathan in Manhattan rejected the request that she block prosecutors from using the interviews of Maxwell at her November sex trafficking trial.

Maxwell, 59, has been jailed since her arrest last July. The former girlfriend of Epstein has pleaded not guilty to charges that she recruited four teenage girls between 1994 and 2004 for Epstein. Her lawyers had hoped to force the dismissal of two perjury counts stemming from her answers to questions during depositions in April and July of 2016.

The perjury charges stemmed from Maxwell's comments during depositions resulting from a since-settled lawsuit brought against her by one of Epstein's accusers, Virginia Giuffre.
