For Enabling Epstein JPM Chase Is Sued Now Motion in SDNY to Disqualify WilmerHale


By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell book

SDNY COURTHOUSE, May 3 – J.P. Morgan Chase and Deutsche Bank were sued for their enabling of Jeffrey Epstein, in lawsuits filed on Thanksgiving in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, where Inner City Press found them in the docket.

  The separate lawsuits allege that "without exorbitantly large amounts of cash, Epstein's operations could not run, as newly recruited victims were each paid hundreds of dollars in cash immediately after Epstein sexually abused them, as hush money."

   The JPM Chase complaint is on Patreon, here.

On March 20, 2023 Judge Jed S. Rakoff in a bottom line order dismissed some but not all claims, in the Epstein-related cases against JPMC and Deutsche Bank.

Inner City Press put the order on its DocumentCloud here.

On April 28, a motion seeking class certification of Epstein-related claims against JPMC was filed; filing on Patreon here.

On May 3, Judge Rakoff docketed: "Minute Entry for proceedings held before Judge Jed S. Rakoff: Telephone Conference held on 5/1/2023, without transcription or recording. Counsel for Bradley Edwards, Jane Doe, the United States Virgin Islands, JP Morgan, and Jes Staley were present. With respect to Bradley Edwards motion to disqualify WilmerHale, initial moving papers are due by no later than 5:00 PM on 5/4/2023, answering papers by no later than 5:00 PM on 5/8/2023, and reply by no later than 5:00 PM on 5/9/2023."
