Summary
This document is a page from a legal filing (dated Sept 17, 2024) arguing that Jeffrey Epstein's Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) was legally limited only to the Southern District of Florida (SDFL) and not binding on other federal districts. It cites the US Attorney's Manual and the specific text of the NPA authorized by R. Alexander Acosta to support the claim that the agreement contained limiting language regarding its scope. The text emphasizes that the negotiation history does not support an inference that the agreement was intended to apply nationwide.
