Legal Brief / Court Filing (Page 15) • 1.62 MB

This page from a legal filing (likely by attorney Brad Edwards) argues that discovery efforts targeting Jeffrey Epstein's friends were necessary and valid. It highlights that Epstein and his household staff—who helped recruit minor girls—pleaded the Fifth Amendment to avoid answering questions about activities at the West Palm Beach mansion. The document asserts that evidence of other sexual abuse is admissible to prove modus operandi or motive.

This document appears to be a page from James Patterson's book 'Filthy Rich,' stamped as part of a House Oversight investigation. The text details the contentious legal battle between Jeffrey Epstein and attorney [Brad] Edwards, describing Epstein's lawsuit against Edwards as a desperate attempt by a 'serial pedophile' to silence victims' advocates. It also discusses Sarah Kellen using the alias 'Clara' to rent property in Palm Beach in April 2009 and mentions prosecutors considering Kellen and Marcinkova as potential co-conspirators.

Page 12 of a legal filing opposing Jeffrey Epstein's Motion for Summary Judgment in a civil case (Case No. 502009CA040800XXXXMBAG). The document argues that Epstein cannot rely on public filings he knows to be untrue while simultaneously invoking his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination to refuse answering questions about criminal activity. The filing asserts that his refusal to testify creates 'adverse inferences' that should preclude him from winning a summary judgment or prosecuting an abuse of process claim against Edwards.

Legal Pleading (Opposition to Motion for Summary Judgment) • 1.77 MB
View

This document is page 11 of a legal filing titled 'Edwards' Opposition to Epstein's Motion for Summary Judgment.' It argues that Epstein's voluntary dismissal of previous claims against Edwards constitutes a 'bona fide termination' of proceedings, supporting Edwards' counterclaim for malicious prosecution. The text asserts that Epstein dismissed his claims on the eve of a hearing because he knew he lacked probable cause and verifiable evidence.

Legal Filing (Motion for Leave to Assert Claim for Punitive Damages) • 1.78 MB
View

This document is page 9 of a legal motion in the case 'Edwards adv. Epstein' (Case No. 502009CA040800XXXXMBAG). It argues that Jeffrey Epstein's claims linking Edwards to Scott Rothstein's Ponzi scheme were completely baseless, noting that Epstein voluntarily dismissed the claims right before a summary judgment hearing. The text asserts Edwards had no involvement in the scheme and characterizes Epstein's allegations as lacking substance.

The text defends Edwards' actions as ethical legal advocacy, notes that the lawsuits were filed in 2008 before Edwards knew Scott Rothstein, and highlights that Epstein paid significant settlements in these cases. A footnote mentions that Epstein filed a retaliatory bar complaint against Edwards which was dismissed.

This document is page 3 of a 'Second Renewed Motion for Leave to Assert Claim for Punitive Damages' in the case of Edwards adv. Epstein. The text presents legal arguments citing Florida statutes and case law (specifically Section 768.72) to establish that a formal evidentiary hearing is not required to amend a complaint for punitive damages, as a 'proffer' of evidence is sufficient. The document bears a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp.

Legal Motion/Brief (likely in support of Summary Judgment) • 2.35 MB
View

This document is page 2 of a legal filing dated September 12, 2013, likely a brief supporting attorney Edwards' Motion for Summary Judgment against Jeffrey Epstein. The text argues that Epstein cannot sue Edwards for damages while simultaneously asserting his Fifth Amendment privilege ('sword and shield' doctrine) to avoid answering questions about his sexual abuse of minors, including specific allegations by victims L.M. and Jane Doe. It also reveals that Epstein settled three cases handled by Edwards for confidential amounts that were not of 'minimal value,' contradicting his own claims.

Legal Filing / Court Motion (Likely Motion for Summary Judgment) • 1.74 MB
View

This page from a legal filing (page 16) argues that attorney Edwards was entitled to seek discovery regarding Jeffrey Epstein's friends and past abuse to support claims for punitive damages, characterizing Epstein as a 'predatory pedophile' who assaulted 'dozens and dozens of minor girls.' The document further argues that Epstein's own lawsuit should be dismissed because he has refused to participate in discovery, instead invoking the Fifth Amendment when questioned.

Legal Motion / Court Filing (Page 22) • 1.69 MB
View

This document is page 22 of a legal filing (likely a motion) detailing attorney Edwards' attempts to depose Jeffrey Epstein and his associates in 2010. It highlights that Epstein refused to answer questions on advice of counsel, and that associates Sarah Kellen, Nadia Marcinkova, and Adriana Mucinska Ross all invoked the Fifth Amendment to avoid self-incrimination regarding the procuring of young girls. The document specifically notes that Bruce Reinhart represented Sarah Kellen during her deposition.

Legal Brief / Motion Argument (Page 5 of a larger filing) • 2.6 MB
View

This document, dated September 12, 2013, is a legal defense of attorney Edwards against claims made by Jeffrey Epstein. It argues that Edwards did not 'pump' cases to investors, noting that he filed complaints against Epstein long before meeting Scott Rothstein or joining RRA. The text highlights that Epstein settled three cases (including one for 'Jane Doe') in July 2010 for significant sums via court-ordered mediation presided over by Judge Kenneth A. Marra, and that the Florida Bar dismissed Epstein's ethics complaint against Edwards.

Legal Filing / Motion (Page 2) • 1.62 MB
View

This document is a page from a legal filing defending attorney Edwards against a lawsuit brought by Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein's complaint alleged that Edwards conspired with Scott Rothstein (of the RRA law firm) to use sexual assault lawsuits against Epstein to 'pump' a Ponzi scheme by preventing settlements. The document refutes these claims as false, noting that Edwards was simply providing competent representation to victims (L.M., E.W., and Jane Doe) whom Epstein had sexually abused.

Legal Motion / Court Filing (Argument for Summary Judgment) • 1.65 MB
View

This document is page 4 of a legal filing, likely a Motion for Summary Judgment filed by attorney Edwards. It argues that Edwards properly represented three victims of sexual assault against Jeffrey Epstein and that Epstein's subsequent lawsuit against Edwards is a baseless, retaliatory tactic by a 'serial pedophile' to avoid accountability and public disclosure. The text characterizes Epstein as using his wealth to manipulate the legal system and attacks the credibility of Epstein's 'Second Amended Complaint.'

This document describes Jeffrey Epstein's obstruction of the discovery process in civil lawsuits filed by attorney Edwards.
