Summary
Defense counsel Bennet Moskowitz submits a letter to the Court in the 'Jane Doe 1000' case, attaching a recent Order from Judge Paul Engelmayer in the 'Jane Doe 15' case. The attached Order dismisses Jane Doe 15's claim for punitive damages against the Epstein Estate, ruling that under both New York and New Mexico law, punitive damages cannot be recovered from a deceased tortfeasor's estate. The Order details allegations that Jane Doe 15 was groomed by Epstein's secretary in New York and subsequently abused by Epstein at his New Mexico ranch in 2004.
