Document DOJ-COURT-035 is a joint motion filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, requesting the court's approval of a stipulation for acceptance of service of process and an agreed date for the defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, to respond to complaints in lawsuits filed by plaintiffs Jane Doe 2, Jane Doe 3, Jane Doe 4, and Jane Doe 5.
This document indicates that Jeffrey Epstein and the plaintiffs, identified as Jane Does 2-5, have come to an agreement regarding the formal service of process, with Epstein's counsel waiving the requirement and accepting service on his behalf. It also establishes a timeline for Epstein to respond to the complaints, setting a deadline of September 4, 2008. The motion argues that this stipulation will streamline the legal process, reduce costs, and ensure certainty regarding service.
