This document is a legal letter dated October 19, 2023, from a coalition of 17 State Attorneys General (led by New Mexico AG Raúl Torrez) to Judge Jed S. Rakoff regarding the case Doe v. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The Attorneys General object to Section 1.25 of the proposed settlement, which attempts to release 'sovereign or government' claims. They argue this language improperly interferes with their authority to bring parens patriae actions under the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) on behalf of trafficking victims, contrasting this with the Deutsche Bank settlement which did not contain such a release.
