This document is an 'Opposition to Remand Motion' filed by defendants Jeffrey Epstein and Sarah Kellen in September 2008 in the Southern District of Florida. The defendants argue that the case should remain in federal court because the plaintiff fraudulently joined co-defendant Haley Robson (a Florida resident) solely to destroy diversity jurisdiction. The filing contends that the plaintiff has no valid cause of action against Robson for civil conspiracy, intentional infliction of emotional distress (IIED), or civil RICO under Florida law, arguing that Robson's alleged actions do not meet the legal standards for these torts.

Defendant Jeffrey Epstein moves to dismiss Counts I (sexual assault), II (civil conspiracy), and IV (civil RICO) of Jane Doe's amended complaint. The motion argues that the sexual assault claim improperly relies on a criminal statute with no private right of action, the conspiracy claim lacks an actionable underlying tort, and the RICO claim fails to allege a direct injury resulting from a predicate act. The document outlines relevant Florida case law and statutes to support the dismissal of these claims.

This document is a letter dated July 17, 2008, from the U.S. Department of Justice (Southern District of Florida) to Jeffrey Epstein's attorney, Michael R. Tein. The U.S. Attorney's Office disputes the defense's claim that the federal criminal action is 'pending,' stating that under the Non-Prosecution Agreement (NPA), the investigation is suspended and motions to quash subpoenas should have been withdrawn. The letter warns that if Epstein claims the federal action is pending to stay civil proceedings, the DOJ will resume the motion to quash and analyze seized computer equipment.
