Summary
This document is a chain of emails between Miami defense attorney Joe Nascimento and prosecutors from the SDNY (US Attorney's Office) regarding the Jeffrey Epstein case. The correspondence begins on July 6, 2019, immediately following the service of a grand jury subpoena to a female client formerly represented by Nascimento's deceased partner, Alan Ross. The emails detail the scheduling of meetings, proffers, and phone calls in West Palm Beach and New York between 2019 and 2021, with specific mentions of Hurricane Dorian delays in 2019 and COVID-19 protocols in 2021.

We can start as early as you want on Friday (earlier than 9am is Ok).

Hi Joe,
Hope you're doing well. I wanted to check in on scheduling for our meetings on Thursday and Friday. Let's still plan to meet at 10 a.m. on Thursday, if that works for you. On Friday, could we possibly move our meeting up to 9 a.m.?
With respect to pandemic protocols, our mask requirement remains in place. However, the process for entry is different. I'm attaching the self-screening form the department uses. No need to send me anything—the folks at security will review it with you and your client when you arrive, but that's it.

Good morning,
Just wanted to check in to see if you still planned to travel south given the storm. Current estimates show a landing (somewhere) Tuesday with very bad weather on Wednesday. Airports might close (which will answer my question), but that's a guess.

I just wanted to follow up re the August 14th meeting. Is it possible to schedule for early afternoon (anytime after 1)? I have proactive cooperation ongoing in another case involving multiple jurisdictions, and they are looking to meet the morning of 8/14. I understand if your schedule is already set, and will work around it.

As we start thinking about scheduling a next meeting with [Redacted] we were wondering if you could please let us know if there are any particular weeks that would not work for you or your client for a meeting in Florida (in particular, we don't want to interfere with anyone's summer vacation plans).
We will of course be in touch to talk about a next meeting in more detail, but in the first instance it would be helpful to get a sense of your schedules, for planning purposes.

My former partner, Alan Ross, represented [Redacted] prior to his passing in 2018. Agents [Redacted] served [Redacted] with a grand jury subpoena earlier today, and as Alan's former partner and FL Bar appointed inventory attorney, she has contacted me. Unfortunately, I am unable to meet with her until Tuesday, but I would appreciate a few minutes of your time at your convenience as I am getting up to speed. Please let me know what day/time is best for you.
Look forward to speaking with you.
