Summary

This document is a Notice of Withdrawal of Motion for Partial Summary Judgment filed on April 8, 2016, in a Florida Circuit Court case between Bradley J. Edwards/Paul G. Cassell and Alan M. Dershowitz. The plaintiffs withdraw their motion pursuant to a confidential settlement agreement but explicitly state that their client, Virginia Giuffre, reaffirms her allegations and that the withdrawal is not an admission that her allegations were mistaken. They concede that filing certain allegations in a separate Crime Victims' Rights Act case was a 'tactical mistake' that caused distractions.

Rights Act case of their client's allegations against Defendant Dershowitz became a major
