This document outlines the procedural background of Jeffrey Epstein's Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA) from September 2007, where he agreed to plead guilty to state charges in Florida and serve an eighteen-month sentence, in exchange for the U.S. agreeing not to prosecute him for offenses from 2001-2007 and not to charge potential co-conspirators. It also highlights a legal inconsistency regarding the enforceability of such agreements across different circuit courts, referencing a motion to dismiss by Maxwell that would have been granted under different circumstances.

""Maxwell's motion to dismiss would have been granted if she had been charged in at least four other circuits (plus the Eleventh, where Epstein's agreement was entered into). This inconsistency in the law by which the same promise by the United States means different things in different places should be addressed by this Court."Source
""[i]n consideration of Epstein's agreement to plead guilty and provide compensation in the manner described above, if Epstein successfully fulfills all of the terms of this agreement, the United States also agrees that it will not institute any criminal charges against any potential co-conspirators of Epstein, including but not limited to [four named individuals].""Source
