““Violation of Rule 16(a)(1)(A), like the violation of other discovery rules, calls for the application of differing remedies depending upon the seriousness of the violation and the amount of prejudice to the defendant. In recognition of this, Rule 16(d)(2) provides for different remedies for non-compliance including — as an alternative to outright rejection of the non-disclosed evidence — a continuance. “The Government did not act in bad faith here — as, for example, by saving the tape for rebuttal, after its relevance was known, in deliberate violation of duties under Rule 16.””
