Summary
This document is a transcript of the initial court conference for United States v. Jeffrey Epstein held on July 8, 2019, before Judge Richard M. Berman. Key topics discussed include the scheduling of a bail hearing, the controversy surrounding the 2007 Florida Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) which the defense argues bars this prosecution, and the government's stance that the NPA does not bind the Southern District of New York. The court also addresses Epstein's sex offender status, the recent search of his Manhattan townhouse, and sets a schedule for bail submissions and the next hearing on July 15, 2019.
