Document Information

Type: Legal brief / memorandum of law (motion for summary judgment)
File Size: 1.54 MB
Summary

This document is page 3 of a legal filing (likely a Motion for Summary Judgment) arguing that Jeffrey Epstein's lawsuit against attorney Bradley J. Edwards should be dismissed. The text argues that Epstein cannot sue Edwards while simultaneously asserting his Fifth Amendment privilege ('sword and shield' doctrine) to avoid answering questions about sexual abuse. It also notes that Epstein recently settled three cases handled by Edwards for amounts significantly higher than the 'minimal value' Epstein claimed they were worth.
