Law (DE #_J, filed May 26, 2009. Plaintiffs represent that Defendant has not agreed to the
relief requested in this motion. The Court has carefully considered the motion and is otherwise
fully advised in the premises.
It is ORDERED AND ADJUGED that Plaintiffs' Motion (DE # _J is GRANTED.
A. Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, and his employees, his agents, his attorneys, and other
nonparties are directed to take every reasonable step to preserve all evidence,
including, but not limited to, evidence related to the October 25 search, documents,
data, and tangible things, which includes, but is not limited to, writings; records; files;
correspondence; digital or chemical process photographs (including negatives);
reports; memoranda; calendars; diaries; minutes; electronic messages; voicemail; e-
mail; telephone message records or logs; computer and network activity logs; hard
drives; backup data; removable computer storage media, such as tapes, disks, and
cards; printouts; document image files; web pages; databases; spreadsheets; software;
books; ledgers; journals; orders; invoices; bills; vouchers; checks; statements;
worksheets; summaries; compilations; computations; charts; diagrams; graphic
presentations; drawings; films; charts; video, phonographic, tape, or digital recordings
or transcripts thereof; drafts; jottings; and notes. Information that serves to identify,
locate, or link such material, such as file inventories, file folders, indices, and

mansions; any diary, log, memo pad, calendar, or other writing reflecting date of each
victim's visit(s) to Defendant's mansions; any diary or document wherein each victim
wrote regarding a victim's visit to Defendant's mansions; all documents sent to or by
the PBPD, the FBI, the USAO, or the PBSAO; and all computers used by Defendant
and/or his agents and/or employees since 1998.
B. The duty extends to documents, data, and tangible things in the possession, custody,
and/or control of the parties to this action and any employees, agents, contractors,
carriers, bailees, or other nonparties who possess materials reasonably anticipated to
be subject to discovery in these actions. Counsel is under an obligation to exercise
reasonable efforts to identify and notify such nonparties.
C. "Preservation" is to be interpreted broadly to accomplish the goal of maintaining the
integrity of all documents, data, and tangible things reasonably anticipated to be
subject to discovery in these actions under Rules 26, 45, and 56(e) of the Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure. Preservation includes taking reasonable steps to prevent
the partial or full destruction, alteration, testing, deletion, shredding, incineration,
wiping, relocation, migration, theft, or mutation of such material, as well as negligent
or intentional handling that would make material incomplete or inaccessible.
D. Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, and his employees, agents, and attorneys shall preserve
any evidence from the October 25, 2005 execution of a search warrant at his mansion
at 358 El Brillo Way in Palm Beach, Florida, that has already been returned to him by
the Palm Beach Police Department.
E. If an objection or privilege is raised, the parties may raise the issue with this Court
and shall preserve the evidence in question pending resolution by the Court.

F. The parties, without leave of Court, may agree in writing that certain documents or
categories of evidence need not be preserved as otherwise required by this Order. If
such agreement is reached, such agreement is effective upon signing and without
further order of this Court.
G. This Order shall not be deemed to create any "safe harbors" for the destruction of
evidence. If this Court determines that evidence has been destroyed or lost, whether
knowingly or not, it will impose appropriate sanctions.
H. Each party shall bear its own costs for complying with this Order.
DONE AND ORDERED in Chambers at West Palm Beach, Palm Beach County, Florida,
