DOJ-COURT-095 is a legal document from the Southern District of Florida, filed on May 11, 2009, concerning the case of Jane Doe No. 2 against Jeffrey Epstein.
This document is a motion filed by Jeffrey Epstein's counsel requesting the court to order the plaintiff, Jane Doe No. 2, to use the proper case style in all filings, arguing against the inclusion of other Jane Does in the case caption as it creates confusion and the appearance of consolidated cases. The motion references Rule 10(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Local General Rule 7.1, emphasizing that only parties to the specific action should be included in the caption. The document suggests a legal dispute over procedural correctness in how the case is being presented in court filings.

Page 1 of 5 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA CASE NO.: 08-CV-80119-MARRA.JOHNSON JANE DOE NO. 2, Plaintiff, V. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, Defendant. ------------~' DEFENDANT EPSTEIN'S MOTION FOR ORDER REQUIRING THAT PLAINTIFF USE PROPER CASE STYLE IN ALL FILINGS Defendant, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, by and through his undersigned counsel, moves this Court for the entry of an order requiring that the Plaintiff in the above-styled action use the proper case-style in all filings in this action, as opposed to improperly including all other Jane Does, (Jane Doe No. 2, Jane Doe No. 3, Jane Doe No. 4, Jane Doe No. 5, Jane Doe No. 6, and Jane Doe No. 7), who are represented by the same counsel. Rule 10(a), Fed.R.Civ.P. (2009), Loe. Gen. Rule 7.1 (S.D. Fla. 2009). In support of his motion, Defendant states: 1. Rule 1 0(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, pertaining to "Caption; Names of Parties," provides that - Every pleading must have a caption with the court's name, a title, a file number, and a Rule 7(a) designation. The title of the complaint must name all the parties; the title of other pleadings, after naming the first party on each side, may refer generally to other parties. 2. Attached hereto as Exhibit A is the case style which Plaintiff recently used in filing papers with this Court. This action has not been consolidated with any of the other Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 95 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/11/2009
Page 2 of 5 Doe 2 v. Epstein Page2 Jane Doe actions filed by Plaintiff's counsel. Rule 10(a) makes clear that only the parties to this action are to be included in the caption. 3. By including case styles from five additional cases makes it appear as though the cases have been consolidated. Further, the case style used by Plaintiff is not only misleading, but confusing in that there is no clear delineation as to in which action the matter is properly filed. Each case has different facts and should proceed on those facts. Each Plaintiff is claiming personal injury type damages which must be decided separately. 4. Accordingly, Defendant is entitled to an order requiring that Plaintiff uses the proper caption and case style in this action and not list every case in which her counsel represents other Jane Does. WHEREFORE, Defendant respectfully requests that this Court grant Defendant's motion, and enter the requested order. Rule 7 .1 Certification Pursuant to letter communication, Plaintiff's counsel did not agree with the relief request in Defendant's motion.
