report on behalf of the MAXI team: 

We examined MAXI/GSC all-sky X-ray images (2-20 keV) 
after the LVC trigger S191213g at 2019-12-13 04:34:08.142 UTC (GCN 26402). 

At the trigger time of S191213g, the high-voltage of MAXI/GSC was on, 
but the FOV was out of the 90% credible region of the bayestar skymap. 
The first one-orbit (92 min) scan observation with GSC after the event covered 92% 
of the 90% credible region of the bayestar skymap from 05:10:08 to 05:33:32 UTC (T0+2160 to T0+3564 sec). 

No significant new source was found in the region in the one-orbit scan observation. 
A typical 1-sigma averaged upper limit obtained in one scan observation 
is 20 mCrab at 2-20 keV.
