Summary

This document is an email chain from December 19, 2019, between officials at the US Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York (SDNY). An Assistant U.S. Attorney reports on a call with counsel for the Epstein estate trustees, who are requesting a meeting with senior SDNY leadership to discuss resolving civil forfeiture claims and a proposed victim compensation fund. The trustees acknowledge the 'line assistants' cannot negotiate and wish to 'elevate' the discussion to reach a resolution.

[REDACTED],
In our call today with counsel for the respective Trustees of the Epstein estate, they asked that we convey a request to
meet with [REDACTED], and anyone else she would want to include in such a meeting, to discuss the Trustees' interest in
resolving the Government's potential civil forfeiture claims against the estate. They said they appreciated our (the line
assistants') willingness to hear their regular updates, but that they understand we're not in a position to negotiate, or
even to provide feedback on the proposed plan for the fund, and so they'd like the opportunity to elevate that
discussion and convey why they believe it would be in all parties' interests, including the victims, to engage in
meaningful discussions about a possible resolution. When you've spoken with [REDACTED], could you please let us know
whether she's willing to meet with them? And we can convey the response, unless you and/or she would prefer to do
so directly. If she is willing to meet with them, they were hoping to put a date and time on the calendar as soon as is
convenient for her after the holiday.
thanks,
[REDACTED]
Assistant U.S. Attorney
