Summary

This document is page 830 from 349 Federal Supplement, 2d Series. It outlines legal standards for intentional infliction of emotional distress, trespass, and negligence in the context of lawsuits related to the September 11, 2001 attacks (specifically the Ashton and Burnett plaintiffs). It significantly addresses banking liability, citing case law to establish that banks generally do not owe a duty to non-customers to protect them from the intentional torts of their customers, nor are they liable for injuries caused by money passing through routine banking services. While the document bears a House Oversight Bates stamp, Jeffrey Epstein is not explicitly named on this specific page; however, the legal precedents regarding banking liability are relevant to investigations into financial institutions that serviced high-risk clients.
