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.

This document is a press release and joint statement dated April 8, 2016, announcing the settlement of a defamation lawsuit between Professor Alan Dershowitz and attorneys Bradley Edwards and Paul Cassell. The attorneys acknowledged it was a mistake to have filed sexual misconduct accusations against Dershowitz on behalf of their client, Virginia Roberts, and withdrew those claims. Dershowitz withdrew his counterclaims regarding unethical conduct and reiterated his denial of the allegations, citing travel records as evidence of his absence during the alleged events.

010-05.pdf

This document is a civil complaint filed on January 6, 2015, in Broward County, Florida, by attorneys Bradley J. Edwards and Paul G. Cassell against Alan M. Dershowitz. The plaintiffs allege that Dershowitz defamed them in media interviews (specifically on CNN) by accusing them of misconduct and lying after they filed court pleadings alleging Dershowitz participated in Jeffrey Epstein's criminal conduct. The complaint asserts that Dershowitz's statements were false, malicious, and intended to distract from his own alleged involvement in Epstein's crimes and the negotiation of Epstein's non-prosecution agreement.

This is a court order from Judge Kenneth A. Marra denying motions by Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 to join an existing lawsuit filed by Jane Doe 1 and 2 against the US Government regarding violations of the Crime Victims' Rights Act in the Epstein case. The judge ruled that adding new parties was unnecessary as their claims were duplicative and they could instead serve as witnesses. Significantly, the Judge sua sponte ordered the striking of 'lurid details' and allegations made by Jane Doe 3 regarding being trafficked to high-profile non-parties (including politicians and world leaders), deeming them impertinent to the specific legal claim against the government. Consequently, Alan Dershowitz's motion to intervene to strike these same allegations was denied as moot.

This document is a printout of a 'Letter to the Editor' written by Alan Dershowitz to The Harvard Crimson, filed as a legal exhibit in Case 1:19-cv-03377. In the letter, Dershowitz vehemently denies Virginia Roberts' sexual misconduct allegations, claiming she lied about him as well as Bill Clinton and the Gores being on Epstein's island.

A letter to the editor of The Harvard Crimson written by Alan Dershowitz, dated December 5, 2018. Dershowitz criticizes The Crimson for omitting his defense against Virginia Roberts' accusations, which he characterizes as 'wilfully false' and motivated by financial gain from Leslie Wexner. He asserts that travel, financial, and TV records, reviewed by a former FBI Director, prove he was never present at the locations (Caribbean, New Mexico, etc.) where Roberts claimed to have met him.

This document appears to be a page from a manuscript or memoir (possibly by Alan Dershowitz himself, given the shift to first-person perspective) discussing his early teaching career at Harvard Law School. It details his Socratic teaching philosophy, the criticism he faced from traditionalists, and the defense and praise he received from figures like Justice Arthur Goldberg and the New York Times Magazine (specifically a 1966 article).

It recounts his experiences as a law clerk in 1962-1963, specifically detailing a case involving a fraudulent lawyer named Morgan and Dershowitz's admiration for the appellate attorney Monroe Freedman. The text highlights a lesson Dershowitz learned from Judge Bazelon regarding the necessity of a solid legal basis for reversing convictions, ending with a parenthetical reference to Bush v. Gore.

This document is a court-filed printout of a 'Letter to the Editor' written by Alan Dershowitz to The Harvard Crimson (originally published Dec 5, 2018). In the letter, Dershowitz vehemently denies Virginia Roberts' sexual misconduct allegations, claiming she also lied about Al Gore, Tipper Gore, and Bill Clinton being on Epstein's island.

This is a court filing from November 2015 in Broward County, Florida, involving a defamation case between plaintiffs Bradley Edwards/Paul Cassell and defendant Alan Dershowitz. The plaintiffs are responding to Dershowitz's motion to keep certain records confidential, arguing that the records—which detail Virginia Giuffre's allegations of sexual abuse by Dershowitz—are central to the case and have never been deemed confidential by any other court.

This is page 10 of a legal filing, specifically an objection to a subpoena in a Florida defamation action (likely related to Alan Dershowitz). 'Jane Doe No. 3' is arguing to quash requests for her personal financial information and privileged communications with her legal counsel, Boies, Schiller & Flexner LLP (BSF). The document cites Florida case law regarding attorney-client privilege and references specific discovery requests asking about her media interactions regarding Epstein, Dershowitz, and Prince Andrew.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_015606.jpg

This document is page 8 of a legal filing arguing against a Defendant's subpoena requests, characterizing them as a 'fishing expedition' and an abuse of power. The text specifically highlights 'Request no. 24,' which sought documents regarding Jane Doe No. 3's assertions that she met Bill Clinton, Al Gore, and Tipper Gore on Little Saint James Island. The filing argues these requests are irrelevant to the current court action and are being used to gather discovery for a separate federal case (Case No. 0S-SO736-CIV-MARRA/JOHNSON) involving Alan Dershowitz.

This document is page 4 of a legal filing by Alan Dershowitz, arguing that Virginia Roberts Giuffre made false statements in an affidavit regarding former President Bill Clinton's presence on Little St. James Island.

It also references exhibits including a Daily Mail article and a transcript of a call between Dershowitz and a woman named Rebecca.

HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_015590.jpg

This document is a legal motion filed on February 3, 2016, by Alan Dershowitz in the Circuit Court of Broward County, Florida. Dershowitz requests a modification to a January 12, 2016 confidentiality order so that he may use the sealed deposition testimony of Virginia Roberts Giuffre (taken January 16, 2016) to contact witnesses and consult experts for his defense. He argues that restricting access to this testimony impedes his ability to represent himself and verify the accuracy of Roberts' claims.
