Page 1 of 6 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA CASE NO.: 08-CV-80119-CIV-MARRA/JOHNS'ON JANE DOE NO. 2, Plaintiff, vs. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, Defendant. I -------------- Related cases: 08-80232, 08-80380, 98-80381, 08-80994, 08-80993, 08-80811, 08-80893, 09-80469, 09-80591, 09-80656, 09-80802, 09-81092 I -------------- PLAINTIFF, CAROLYN MARGARET ANDRIANO'S, MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER AS TO DEFENDANT, JEFFREY EPSTEIN'S, ATTENDANCE AT PLAINTIFF'S DEPOSITION Plaintiff, Carolyn Margaret Andriano, by and through her undersigned attorneys, and pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c)(1) and Local Rule 7.1, hereby files this Motion for Protective Order as to Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein's, Attendance at Deposition of Plaintiff, and in support thereof states as follows: 1. Presently pending before this Court are two motions for protective orders seeking to preclude Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, from being physically present in the room while Plaintiffs' depositions are being taken. Specifically, Jane Does 2-8 have filed their Motion For Protective Order as to Jeffrey Epstein's Attendance at Deposition 1 Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 331 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/29/2009
Page 2 of 6 of Plaintiffs, And Incorporated Memorandum of Law (Case No. 08-CV-80119, D.E. 292) and Plaintiff Jane Doe has filed her Motion For a Protective Order Enforcing No Contact Order and Incorporated Memorandum of Law (Case No. 08-CV-80119, D.E. 297). 2. Essentially, these motions for protective orders seek to prevent Plaintiffs from suffering further victimization, harm, and mental trauma by having Jeffrey Epstein present in the room during their depositions while they recount the most intimate details of their lives, including the sexual offenses committed against them by Jeffrey Epstein while they were minors. Plaintiffs propose having a video feed linked to a monitor in another room where Mr. Epstein can view same and have contemporaneous contact with his attorneys in the deposition room. 3. Plaintiff, Carolyn Margaret Andriano's, deposition has been set for October 29, 2009. Based on correspondence received from counsel for Mr. Epstein, it is Mr. Epstein's intention to be physically present in the room during Plaintiff's deposition. 4. Plaintiff, Carolyn Margaret Andriano, joins, incorporates by reference, and adopts the arguments made in support of Plaintiffs Jane Doe (D.E. 297) and Jane Does 2-8 (D.E. 292) as if fully set forth herein. 5. Additionally, as this Court is already aware, the deposition of Jane Doe #4 had to be cancelled after she "encountered" Mr. Epstein in the lobby immediately adjacent to the deposition room, notwithstanding the apparent agreement of counsel for Mr. Epstein that he would not be present for same. Plaintiff respectfully suggests that the requested protective order seeks to prevent Plaintiff from suffering from the 2 Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 331 Entered on FLSD Docket 09/29/2009
Page 3 of 6 psychological trauma as a result of a similar "encounter" with Jeffrey Epstein at her deposition. 6. Lastly, it appears that Judge Hafele in a pending state court case (E W v. Jeffrey Epstein, Palm Beach County Circuit Court Case No. 502008CP003626) has agreed that allowing Defendant to view a live video feed, rather than be physically present in the deposition room, was an appropriate balance between the parties' interests. (See Jane Doe Nos. 2-8 Response to Emergency Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Motion for Protective Order and Emergency Motion to Allow the Attendance of Jeffery Epstein at the Deposition of Plaintiff, D.E. 330, paragraph 4). While Judge Hafele's determination is certainly not binding on this Court, it is illustrative. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff, Carolyn Margaret Andriano, respectfully requests that this Court enter a protective order preventing Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, from attending the deposition of Plaintiff, Carolyn Margaret Andriano, but permitting him to view a live video feed of the deposition from a remote location. CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE WITH LOCAL RULE 7 .1 Counsel for the movant has conferred with counsel for the Defendant regarding his position on the instant motion and has been informed that counsel for Defendant is not in agreement with any of the relief requested herein.
