This document is a legal memorandum filed on February 13, 2008, by the attorneys for Jane Doe No. 1 and her father in the case against Jeffrey Epstein (Case No. 08-80069). The plaintiffs oppose a motion filed by Jane Doe's mother, Dawn LaVogue Sandberg, who sought to stay the proceedings until the minor plaintiff reached the age of majority. The plaintiffs argue that the mother's motion is procedurally defective, was not properly served on the defendant (Epstein), and that the mother lacks standing because the father has full legal custody of the child. The document emphasizes that the lawsuit concerns the sexual assault of Jane Doe No. 1 by Epstein when she was 14 years old.
