Summary

This legal document argues that a 2003 amendment to Section 3283, which extended a statute of limitations, was properly applied to Maxwell's case under the 'Landgraf' legal framework. It contends that since the original limitations period had not expired when Congress passed the amendment, the charges against Maxwell are timely. The document also cites evidence from a separate case (United States v. Rutigliano) showing that an individual named Carolyn visited Epstein's residence through 2004, establishing a relevant timeline.

of limitations for these two counts did not begin to run until 2004, well after Congress enacted the 2003 amendment to Section 3283. Maxwell’s arguments about retroactivity are therefore inapplicable to Counts Three and Six.
b. Applying Section 3283 to Maxwell Complies with Landgraf
Furthermore, under the Landgraf framework, the 2003 amendment to Section 3283 properly applies to pre-enactment conduct for which the statute of limitations had not expired at the time the amendment was passed. Because the statute of limitations had not expired when Congress amended Section 3283 in 2003, that amendment extended the limitations period for prosecuting Maxwell, rendering the charges timely.
