Hi,
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving.
EFTA00206054
As we had previously discussed, I am contacting you to see if we can set up a telephone conference to address
some of the outstanding matters that we need to discuss to complete the transfer of the criminal case to your
district and meet our obligations under USAP 3-2.170.001. (I also left a message with your assistant earlier
today.) Those matters include: the nature and scope of any charges/investigation that may potentially remain
viable in the SDFL following the entry of the Non-Prosecution Agreement; the need to advise the FBI in
connection with the agents' pending requests for grand jury subpoenas and their expressed intent to continue
investigating allegations against Epstein, advice which in all likelihood will require informing the FBI agents
about other USAOs that might be able to assist them in light of the grand jury evidence previously obtained;
and the handling of the criminal case file.
We
who was previously assigned to the criminal investigation;
M, who is handling the
CVRA litigation; and me) can make ourselves available to confer with you after 10:30 tomorrow morning,
tomorrow afternoon, or Thursday morning. If those blocks of time do not work, please let us know and we can
make other arrangements to accommodate your schedule.

RE: extra pages
Hey IMBMand
Sorry I had to leave the call early Friday. Meant to check with you on this then.
I am working with Brad to finalize our pleadings to be filed on Monday in response to the motion to dismiss. We are filing
an unsealed pleading (that does not discuss grand jury material) as well as a sealed pleading (that discusses only the
grand jury material and related issues). The unseal pleading is 24 pages long and the sealed pleading is 7 pages long.
We also have a response to the motion to stay which is well under the 20 page limit.
Any objection to a motion for the extra pages (4 + 7, although I'm not sure whether we count the 7) to respond to your
motion to dismiss?
Thanks for your help on getting back to us. PC

Subject: RE: Discovery Issues in Epstein
Dear Mr.
We will shortly be filing a motion to compel Government responses to our discovery requests — discovery which, as you
know, Judge Marra has already ordered. We realize, of course, that the Government has filed a motion to dismiss/stay.
But if the Government's position is rejected on those motions, then the next issue is what discovery can we expect to
receive from the Government.
If the motions are denied, will the Government voluntarily produce anything to us? Will the government at least agree to
produce the following:
(1) The Government's initial disclosures pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26;
(2) Answers to all of the victims' requests for admission;
(3) All documents, correspondence, and other information that the Government distributed to persons or entities outside of
the federal Government or received from persons or entities outside of the federal government; and
(4) All documents, correspondence, and other information covered by the victims' discovery request that is not subject to a
claim of privilege.
And, for all other information withheld, will the Government agree to produce a document-by-document privilege log, as
required by the local rules?
Thanks for your help on these questions and Brad and I have.
Sincerely,
Paul Cassell

Hey IMB =and
M,
Sorry I had to leave the call early Friday. Meant to check with you on this then.
I am working with Brad to finalize our pleadings to be filed on Monday in response to the motion to dismiss. We are filing
an unsealed pleading (that does not discuss grand jury material) as well as a sealed pleading (that discusses only the
grand jury material and related issues). The unseal pleading is 24 pages long and the sealed pleading is 7 pages long.
We also have a response to the motion to stay which is well under the 20 page limit.
Any objection to a motion for the extra pages (4 + 7, although I'm not sure whether we count the 7) to respond to your
motion to dismiss?
Thanks for your help on getting back to us. PC

Subject: RE: Discovery Issues in Epstein
Dear Mr.
We will shortly be filing a motion to compel Government responses to our discovery requests — discovery which, as you
know, Judge Marra has already ordered. We realize, of course, that the Government has filed a motion to dismiss/stay.
But if the Government's position is rejected on those motions, then the next issue is what discovery can we expect to
receive from the Government.
If the motions are denied, will the Government voluntarily produce anything to us? Will the government at least agree to
produce the following:
(1) The Government's initial disclosures pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. R 26;
(2) Answers to all of the victims' requests for admission;
(3) All documents, correspondence, and other information that the Government distributed to persons or entities outside of
the federal Government or received from persons or entities outside of the federal government; and
(4) All documents, correspondence, and other information covered by the victims' discovery request that is not subject to a
claim of privilege.
And, for all other information withheld, will the Government agree to produce a document-by-document privilege log, as
required by the local rules?
Thanks for your help on these questions and Brad and I have.
Sincerely,
Paul Cassell

Status of Outstanding Motions/Discovery issue
EFTA00206078
Hi •
and
There are several motions that are fully briefed but have not been decided:
DE50: Petitioners' Motion for an Order Directing the U.S. Attorney's Office Not to Withhold Relevant
Evidence (this was "held in abeyance" while the Court ordered "limited discovery").
DE51: Petitioners' Motion to Use Correspondence to Provide Violations of the CVRA and to Have their
Unredacted Pleadings Unsealed.
DE56: Motion to Intervene by Roy Black, Martin Weinberg, and Jay Lefkowitz
DE93: Motion for Limited Intervention by Jeffrey Epstein
The first three were all addressed by the Court at the August 12, 2011 hearing, although the Court allowed
supplemental briefing after the hearing on DE56. The last of that supplemental briefing was filed on 10/31/2011.
DE93 was fully briefed on 10/14/2011.
The 90-day mark on DE93 will be January 12th. My reading of Rule 7.1(b)(3)(B) is that if there is a hearing,
even with supplemental briefing thereafter, one counts from the date of the hearing, and that date has long since
passed, so there is nothing to report on DE50, DE51, and DE56.
With regard to the outstanding motions, there are:
DE119: Our motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction was filed on 11/8/2011. The Jane Does'
Opposition was filed on 12/5/2011. Our Reply has not yet been filed.
DE121: Our motion to stay discovery was filed on 11/8/2011. The Jane Does' Opposition was filed on
12/5/2011. Our Reply has not yet been filed.
DE128: Petitioners' Protective Motion for Remedies was filed on 12/5/2011. Our Opposition has not yet been
filed.
DE130: Petitioners' Protective Motion to Compel was filed on 12/5/2011. We have not yet filed our Opposition.
One does not begin calculating the 90 days on these motions until briefing is completed.
As to the rest of Mr. Cassell's email, I don't recall promising early discovery, I only remember promising that, if
the motion to stay was denied, we would be ready with our production. Is my memory off? I was going to
recommend that I talk to Brad about some of the requests and ask if they have information that leads them to
believe that there is evidence to be found (for example, re Bill Clinton or Prince Andrew) so that they can point
us in the right direction. I would hate for us to deny something based on my knowledge and find out later about
some obscure contact in DC. Thoughts?
To be ready with our production, though, I really need a legal assistant or attorney from Miami to come up here
and sort through all of my boxes with me. And someone needs to order Jeff and Alex's records back from
Archives (I don't know if Matt or Andy's materials are in archives or any closed file rooms). And someone
needs to reach out to CEOS and the DAAG and AAG's offices, as well as DOJ Appellate.
This discovery issue is going to be massive if we are ordered to respond, so it would help to have a civil legal
assistant assigned.

RE: Status of Outstanding Motions/Discovery issue
and M,
Since Cassell has conditioned his nonopposition with conditions, and since we don't agree with what the
conditions, shall we just file our motion and say that the victims oppose it?
That seems easier than engaging
in a never-ending debate with Cassell on the construction and interpretation of the 90 day rule.
My trial will begin on January 17, at 10:00 a.m. I am in the process now of notifying my witnesses and
arranging times for their trial preparation interviews next week. I can put together a second motion for
enlargement of time, but it will be after close of business. Thanks.

Subject: RE: Status of Outstanding Motions/Discovery issue
Under Local Rule 7.1(b)(4), the motions/responses/replies that would be the subject of the extension are not
subject to the 90-day notice because none is a "motion or other matter which has been pending and fully
briefed with no hearing set thereon for a period of ninety (90) days" and none is a "motion or other matter as
to which the Court has conducted a hearing." Cassell's concern regarding those motions is thus unmerited.
With respect to the other matters that
has identified, they are not our motions, and Rule 7.1(b)(4) makes
clear that the notice obligation is imposed on the "the movant or applicant." Notably, under the terms of the
recently amended and renumbered rule, the notice must be "serve[d] on all parties and any affected non-
parties." The explicit filing requirement was deleted from the rule.
As to "initial discovery," my recollection is that, notwithstanding the motion to stay discovery, we expressed a
willingness to look at and consider a request for the government to provide discovery of discrete items where
the resulting production would be relevant, not burdensome, and not otherwise objectionable. But I am
unaware of any communication asking us to consider any more limited discovery request. I don't recall any
representation that we would provide "a list of additional discovery that we could expect if [Petitioners']
motion to dismiss is denied," or anything else of the sort. It is not anything to which I would have been inclined
to agree.

briefed with no hearing set thereon for a period of ninety (90) days" and none is a "motion or other matter as
to which the Court has conducted a hearing." Cassell's concern regarding those motions is thus unmerited.
With respect to the other matters that
has identified, they are not our motions, and Rule 7.1(b)(4) makes
clear that the notice obligation is imposed on the "the movant or applicant." Notably, under the terms of the
recently amended and renumbered rule, the notice must be "serve[d] on all parties and any affected non-
parties." The explicit filing requirement was deleted from the rule.
As to "initial discovery," my recollection is that, notwithstanding the motion to stay discovery, we expressed a
willingness to look at and consider a request for the government to provide discovery of discrete items where
the resulting production would be relevant, not burdensome, and not otherwise objectionable. But I am
unaware of any communication asking us to consider any more limited discovery request. I don't recall any
representation that we would provide "a list of additional discovery that we could expect if [Petitioners']
motion to dismiss is denied," or anything else of the sort. It is not anything to which I would have been inclined
to agree.

Subject: Status of Outstanding Motions/Discovery issue
Hi •
and
There are several motions that are fully briefed but have not been decided:
DE50: Petitioners' Motion for an Order Directing the U.S. Attorney's Office Not to Withhold Relevant
Evidence (this was "held in abeyance" while the Court ordered "limited discovery").
DE51: Petitioners' Motion to Use Correspondence to Provide Violations of the CVRA and to Have their
Unredacted Pleadings Unsealed.
DE56: Motion to Intervene by Roy Black, Martin Weinberg, and Jay Lefkowitz
DE93: Motion for Limited Intervention by Jeffrey Epstein
The first three were all addressed by the Court at the August 12, 2011 hearing, although the Court allowed
supplemental briefing after the hearing on DE56. The last of that supplemental briefing was filed on
10/31/2011.
DE93 was fully briefed on 10/14/2011.
The 90-day mark on DE93 will be January 12th. My reading of Rule 7.1(b)(3)(B) is that if there is a hearing,
even with supplemental briefing thereafter, one counts from the date of the hearing, and that date has long
since passed, so there is nothing to report on DE50, DE51, and DE56.
With regard to the outstanding motions, there are:
DE119: Our motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction was filed on 11/8/2011. The Jane Does'
Opposition was filed on 12/5/2011. Our Reply has not yet been filed.
DE121: Our motion to stay discovery was filed on 11/8/2011. The Jane Does' Opposition was filed on
12/5/2011. Our Reply has not yet been filed.
DE128: Petitioners' Protective Motion for Remedies was filed on 12/5/2011. Our Opposition has not yet
been filed.
DE130: Petitioners' Protective Motion to Compel was filed on 12/5/2011. We have not yet filed our
Opposition.
One does not begin calculating the 90 days on these motions until briefing is completed.
As to the rest of Mr. Cassell's email, I don't recall promising early discovery, I only remember promising
that, if the motion to stay was denied, we would be ready with our production. Is my memory off? I was
going to recommend that I talk to Brad about some of the requests and ask if they have information that
leads them to believe that there is evidence to be found (for example, re Bill Clinton or Prince Andrew)
so that they can point us in the right direction. I would hate for us to deny something based on my
knowledge and find out later about some obscure contact in DC. Thoughts?
EFTA00206083
To be ready with our production, though, I really need a legal assistant or attorney from Miami to come up
here and sort through all of my boxes with me. And someone needs to order Jeff and Alex's records back
from Archives (I don't know if Matt or Andy's materials are in archives or any closed file rooms). And
someone needs to reach out to CEOS and the DAAG and AAG's offices, as well as DOJ Appellate.
This discovery issue is going to be massive if we are ordered to respond, so it would help to have a civil legal
assistant assigned.

Jeffrey Epstein lawyers want to depose Scott
Rothstein
EFTA00206084
Lawyers for convicted billionaire Jeffrey Epstein will ask a bankruptcy judge for permission to depose
Ponzi scammer Scott Rothstein during his two-week deposition beginning next week.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Raymond Ray in Fort Lauderdale set the hearing on Epstein's arguments.
Epstein, who pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting prostitution following accusations that he had sex with
girls, completed his year of house arrest last year.
Epstein also is suing Rothstein and former Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler attorney Bradley Edwards for
allegedly filing a frivolous case.
Rothstein's deposition begins Monday in Miami and is set to last through Christmas Eve with about 30
lawyers in line to question the former lawyer convicted of masterminding a $1.2 billion settlement
financing fraud.
Rothstein, who is in protective custody, is serving a 50-year sentence at an undisclosed location.

Since Cassell has conditioned his nonopposition with conditions, and since we don't agree with what the

That seems easier than engaging

I can only respond within 30 days based upon my own knowledge. Someone needs to gather information from

Jeffrey Epstein lawyers want to depose Scott
Rothstein
Lawyers for convicted billionaire Jeffrey Epstein will ask a bankruptcy judge for permission to depose
Ponzi scammer Scott Rothstein during his two-week deposition beginning next week.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Raymond Ray in Fort Lauderdale set the hearing on Epstein's arguments.
Epstein, who pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting prostitution following accusations that he had sex with
girls, completed his year of house arrest last year.
Epstein also is suing Rothstein and former Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler attorney Bradley Edwards for
allegedly filing a frivolous case.
Rothstein's deposition begins Monday in Miami and is set to last through Christmas Eve with about 30
lawyers in line to question the former lawyer convicted of masterminding a $1.2 billion settlement
financing fraud.
Rothstein, who is in protective custody, is serving a 50-year sentence at an undisclosed location.

Subject: RE: Discovery Issues in Epstein
Dear Mr.
(USAFLS);
(USAFLS)'
We will shortly be filing a motion to compel Government responses to our discovery requests --
discovery which, as you know, Judge Marra has already ordered. We realize, of course, that the
Government has filed a motion to dismiss/stay. But if the Government's position is rejected on those
motions, then the next issue is what discovery can we expect to receive from the Government.
If the motions are denied, will the Government voluntarily produce anything to us? Will the
government at least agree to produce the following:
EFTA00206101
(1) The Government's initial disclosures pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. R 26;
(2) Answers to all of the victims' requests for admission;
(3) All documents, correspondence, and other information that the Government distributed to persons
or entities outside of the federal Government or received from persons or entities outside of the federal
government; and
(4) All documents, correspondence, and other information covered by the victims' discovery request
that is not subject to a claim of privilege.
And, for all other information withheld, will the Government agree to produce a document-by-document
privilege log, as required by the local rules?
Thanks for your help on these questions and Brad and I have.

Hi

Thanks for the call. Sorry I was on the other line.
Can we set up a time certain? That way Brad can participate.
He is in a depo until 4:30, but should be free at 5 PM your time today (Thursday). Does that work?
Looking forward to chatting. PC

Subject: RE: Discovery Issues in Epstein
Dear Mr.
(USAFLS);
(USAFLS)'
We will shortly be filing a motion to compel Government responses to our discovery requests --
discovery which, as you know, Judge Marra has already ordered. We realize, of course, that the
Government has filed a motion to dismiss/stay. But if the Government's position is rejected on those
motions, then the next issue is what discovery can we expect to receive from the Government.
If the motions are denied, will the Government voluntarily produce anything to us? Will the
government at least agree to produce the following:
(1) The Government's initial disclosures pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. R 26;
(2) Answers to all of the victims' requests for admission;
(3) All documents, correspondence, and other information that the Government distributed to persons
or entities outside of the federal Government or received from persons or entities outside of the federal
government; and
EFTA00206119
(4) All documents, correspondence, and other information covered by the victims' discovery request
that is not subject to a claim of privilege.
And, for all other information withheld, will the Government agree to produce a document-by-document
privilege log, as required by the local rules?
Thanks for your help on these questions and Brad and I have.
Sincerely,
Paul Cassell

Hi everyone — Sorry, I am having a very busy duty week. Tomorrow I have court at 9:00 probably until
11:00 and then again from 3:00 until 5:00. I have a debriefing at 1:00, but I should be able to step out

Hey
As you know, we're happy to try and be accommodating. We would be glad to consent to additional
time, but would ask in exchange for two things:
1.
The various delays mean that several motions have now been (or will shortly be) pending for
more than 90 days, triggering a 90 day report obligation under the local rules. We would trust you
would be willing to file that with Judge Marra.
2.
When we finished our telephone call with you some weeks back, Brad and I understood that we
would be receiving (a) some initial discovery in the case and (b) a list of additional discovery that we
could expect if your motion to dismiss is denied. But we have yet to receive anything at all regarding
discovery. We would trust that you will carry through on what we understood you had agreed to in the
telephone call.
Again, we are happy to help - but would ask you to help us on these two points. Thanks!

Hi, M.
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving.
As we had previously discussed, I am contacting you to see if we can set up a telephone conference to address
some of the outstanding matters that we need to discuss to complete the transfer of the criminal case to your
district and meet our obligations under USAP 3-2.170.001. (I also left a message with your assistant earlier
today.) Those matters include: the nature and scope of any charges/investigation that may potentially remain
viable in the SDFL following the entry of the Non-Prosecution Agreement; the need to advise the FBI in
connection with the agents' pending requests for grand jury subpoenas and their expressed intent to continue
investigating allegations against Epstein, advice which in all likelihood will require informing the FBI agents
about other USAOs that might be able to assist them in light of the grand jury evidence previously obtained;
and the handling of the criminal case file.
We (
Villafana, who was previously assigned to the criminal investigation;
M, who is handling the
CVRA litigation; and me) can make ourselves available to confer with you after 10:30 tomorrow morning,
tomorrow afternoon, or Thursday morning. If those blocks of time do not work, please let us know and we can
make other arrangements to accommodate your schedule.

Hi,
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving.
As we had previously discussed, I am contacting you to see if we can set up a telephone conference

criminal case to your district and meet our obligations under USAP 3-2.170.001. (I also left a message

RE: Discovery Issues in Epstein
Dear Mr.
We will shortly be filing a motion to compel Government responses to our discovery requests -- discovery which, as you
know, Judge Marra has already ordered. We realize, of course, that the Government has filed a motion to dismiss/stay.
But if the Governments position is rejected on those motions, then the next issue is what discovery can we expect to
receive from the Government.
if the motions are denied, will the Government voluntarily produce anything to us? Will the government at least agree to
produce the following:
(1)
The Government's initial disclosures pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26;
EFTA00206141
(2)
Answers to all of the victims' requests for admission;
(3)
All documents, correspondence, and other information that the Government distributed to persons or entities outside
of the federal Government or received from persons or entities outside of the federal government; and
(4)
All documents, correspondence, and other information covered by the victims' discovery request that is not subject to
a claim of privilege.
And, for all other information withheld, will the Government agree to produce a document-by-document privilege log, as
required by the local rules?
Thanks for your help on these questions and Brad and I have.

Paul Cassell

RE: Redacted Pleading Rather than Sealing the Entire Pleading
Dear Mr.
We haven't heard back from you on the issue regarding sealing of the Government's leading in the Epstein case. (See
email below sent earlier this week.) I was hoping that you (or Ms.
or Mr. IM) could get back to Brad and me
quickly on this issue.
As you know, we have a series of pleadings that we need to file on Monday. We are trying to understand the
Government's position on sealing these pleadings.
As you also know, we think there is absolutely no basis for sealing the majority of the Government's pleadings. We hope
you agree so that we can move forward consensually, at least on this issue.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Subject: RE: Redacted Pleading Rather than Sealing the Entire Pleading
Dear Mr.
I am writing as co-counsel in the Jane Doe case. I understand that you are supervising the case for U.S. Attorney's Office
there.
I am writing to request that the Government file new, redacted copies of its currently pending motion to dismiss and motion
for stay. As you may know, the Government has filed these two motions entirely under seal. Yet the vast bulk of both
motions do not deal with any material that needs to be under seal.
As you may know, Judge Marra has previously unsealed other pleadings in this case, recognizing the considerable public
interest in the issues being discussed. As you also know, Jane Doe #1 and Jane Doe #2 have tried to work cooperatively
with the Government wherever possible. For example, we earlier stipulated to proposed redactions of material proposed
by Ms.
to avoid disclosing information that she viewed as confidential.
In light of all this, the victims are writing to inquire whether the Government would file a motion to place redacted copies of
its two motions in the public court file in the case. Attached are two redacted pleadings that we believe remove all
information that is properly subject to sealing to protect confidential grand jury material - but no more.
Please let me know whether the Government is willing to move forward on that basis.
Sincerely,
Paul Cassell

Jeffrey Epstein lawyers want to depose Scott
Rothstein
Lawyers for convicted billionaire Jeffrey Epstein will ask a bankruptcy judge for permission to depose
Ponzi scammer Scott Rothstein during his two-week deposition beginning next week.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Raymond Ray in Fort Lauderdale set the hearing on Epstein's arguments.
Epstein, who pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting prostitution following accusations that he had sex with
girls, completed his year of house arrest last year.
Epstein also is suing Rothstein and former Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler attorney Bradley Edwards for
allegedly filing a frivolous case.
Rothstein's deposition begins Monday in Miami and is set to last through Christmas Eve with about 30
lawyers in line to question the former lawyer convicted of masterminding a $1.2 billion settlement
financing fraud.
Rothstein, who is in protective custody, is serving a 50-year sentence at an undisclosed location.

Jeffrey Epstein lawyers want to depose Scott
Rothstein
Lawyers for convicted billionaire Jeffrey Epstein will ask a bankruptcy judge for permission to depose
Ponzi scammer Scott Rothstein during his two-week deposition beginning next week.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Raymond Ray in Fort Lauderdale set the hearing on Epstein's arguments.
Epstein, who pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting prostitution following accusations that he had sex with
girls, completed his year of house arrest last year.
Epstein also is suing Rothstein and former Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler attorney Bradley Edwards for
allegedly filing a frivolous case.
EFTA00206157
Rothstein's deposition begins Monday in Miami and is set to last through Christmas Eve with about 30
lawyers in line to question the former lawyer convicted of masterminding a $1.2 billion settlement
financing fraud.
Rothstein, who is in protective custody, is serving a 50-year sentence at an undisclosed location.

That's nuts. Absolutely nuts. Facing similar nonsense in Rothstein and Tolz. Victims are eating each
other alive while fighting for the pie of forfeited assets

I know. I don't think it will ever go away. And I was just telling someone that I don't really ever want to
do a victim case again. Paul Cassell is actually asking for sanctions in a 61° Circuit case against a
PSC prosecutor because the Appellate Division in DC decided to take a different position on appeal
than the USAO did in the district court and did not confer with the victim. And then, on remand, they
are going to ask that same PSC prosecutor to go into court and argue for a $1 million restitution
award!

RE: Jeffrey Epstein lawyers want to depose Scott Rothstein
On December 2, attorney Joseph Ackerman contacted me in an attempt to get himself and Lily
cleared to participate in the Rothstein deposition. I thereafter sent him the following
message:
Mr. Ackerman:
EFTA00206160
Due to the late date of our request, I was unable to obtain clearance from the U S. Marshal's Service
for you or Ms.
to participate in the deposition of Scott Rothstein. Additionally, under the
protocol established by Judge Ray, parties were required to obtain leave of the court in which litigation
is pending to participate in the deposition and to cross-notice adverse parties. I am unaware as to
whether that was done with reference to the Epstein litigation. I am copying this response to Chuck
Lichtman, counsel to the Trustee in bankruptcy, who has largely organized this proceeding and who
may be able to answer any other questions which you may have in this regard.
Sincerely,
Larry LaVecchio, AUSA
Lichtman responded to Ackerman as follows:
As I have explained, there will be a large number of parties already authorized to ask questions on
discrete issues all of which are interrelated and will take nearly the full time allotted for the deposition.
Everybody already feels they don't have enough allotted time for their respective cases. The topics to
be discussed have nothing to do whatsoever with the claims existing regarding Jeffrey Epstein
Under the circumstances, the Marshal's Service is not going to allow the admittance of Epstein's
attorneys.
