Summary
This document details a legal case where a 'Petitioner' attempted to dismiss an indictment, arguing that Jeffrey Epstein's Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) barred her prosecution as a coconspirator. Both the district court and the court of appeals rejected this argument, finding that the NPA only bound the Florida USAO and did not preclude the USAO-SDNY from prosecuting Maxwell for related offenses. The Petitioner was found guilty on multiple counts and sentenced to 240 months imprisonment.
