Summary

This document is page 9 of a legal filing outlining a dispute between 'The Post' and the Manhattan District Attorney's Office regarding the unsealing of appellate briefs related to Jeffrey Epstein. The text highlights that while Epstein's counsel took 'no position' on the unsealing, the DA's office reversed its initial stance of 'not opposing' the motion and subsequently opposed it, arguing that the Post failed to notify prosecutors in Florida. The document includes a footnote disputing the legal necessity of notifying Florida prosecutors.
