[REDACTED] -- My understanding was that Jay would not be attending the change of plea, so his availability shouldn't have dictated the guilty plea date. Since we have agreed to the date change, can you please confirm with Jay that this will not effect the date when Epstein begins serving his sentence? Thank you.

breakfast Friday. It was great to catch up.
Following up on our conversation about the date for Mr.
Epstein's plea, where you said that you didn't want to
dictate a schedule to the state, as we discussed I have
a case where I represent an individual who is now the
lead witness for the government, and openings are set
for next week. Accordingly, I have now confirmed with
Mr. Epstein's Florida counsel that the state's
attorney's office and the court will be available to
have him enter his plea on November 20. So we will
plan to proceed on one that date. Please confirm that
this is ok.
