Finally, the exercise of jurisdiction here adheres to the purposes of the collateral order doctrine. The validity of the order can be assessed now without waiting until the trial is complete, and nothing about this appeal delays the criminal case. Alternatively, for the reasons given below, this Court can exercise mandamus jurisdiction to correct the district court's clear abuse of discretion. Argument I.

Conticommodity Servs., Inc., 832 F.2d 739, 742 (2d Cir. 1987) (denial of motion to modify protective order is immediately appealable under the collateral order doctrine) (citing Cohen v.
