Summary

This is page 2 of a legal filing (likely by a New York prosecutor) opposing a motion by 'the Post' to release appellate briefs related to Jeffrey Epstein. The document argues that New York Civil Rights Law § 50-b prohibits the release of these documents to protect the privacy of sex crime victims. The author notes that the underlying crimes were prosecuted in Florida and that 'the Post' has not properly notified the victims or the Florida prosecutors as required by law.
