¿Qué significa "turned them over," and "briefing and counter briefs. " ?
Here is the context;
Understand that Northrop fought us every step of the way. Every time we tried to get documents, we needed to go to court to force them to give them to us.
When they "turned them over," it was literally three million paper documents tossed into boxes for us to sort out and make sense of. This was all before the advent of computers. Every one of these back-and-forth efforts took months and months of "briefing and counter briefs. "

"turned them over" means "to give them to us". It is usually used when formally giving something or someone as a result of a legal or military process. "briefing and counter briefs" - a "brief" is a synopsis/summery of a case to be heard in court and so this refers to the two parties laying out their opposing cases.
