Girl drops lawsuit against Palm Beach man
By LARRY KELLER
Palm Beach Post Staff Writer
A girl who says that wealthy money
manager and part-time Palm Beach
resident Jeffrey Epstein engaged in
*sexual activity with her when she was
14, has dropped her lawsuit against
him because her divorced parents are
squabbling over the litigation.

until her daughter
turns 18.
The mother com-
plained that Jane Doe's
father did not consult
with her or their
daughter before suing
Epstein for $50mil-
lion. The lawsuit al-
leges sexual assault,
intentional infliction
of emotional distress
and loss of parental
consortium. Herman
also represents a Jane
Doe No. 2 who, like Jane Doe, claims
Epstein summoned her to his home for
a massage when she was a minor and
sexually touched her.
"It has to do with the fact that the
Epstein
parents aren't on the same page right

sexuallly
for the girl, identified in court papers
assaulting then
only as Jane Doe. "It's like a sideshow."

The girl turns 18 in May and can sue
again at that time without her parents'
involvement, Herman said.
14-year-old girl.
Herman sued Epstein last month on
behalf of the girl, her father and her
stepmother. Her birth mother, who lives
near Atlanta, then asked to intervene
on her daughter's behalf and asked that
Epstein, 55, induced several under-
age girls to give him sexual massages
at his Intracoastal home, a Palm Beach
Police Department investigation con-
cluded. He was indicted in July 2006 on
a single count of felony solicitation of
prostitution. The case is pending.
Jane Doe's parents separated two'
months after she was born at Good Sa-
maritan Medical Center, according to
court records. The couple's subsequent
divorce has been contentious. Each has
had primary custody of the girl at various
times.
The father pleaded guilty to fed-
eral fraud charges in 2001 and was sen-
tenced to 21 months in federal prison,
plus three years' probation. The U.S.
attorney overseeing his prosecution
was Guy Lewis. Now in private practice,
Lewis was hired by Epstein to defend
him against the father's lawsuit filed on
behalf of Jane Doe.
