UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA CASE NO.: 08-CV-80119-MARRA/JOHNSON JANE DOE NO. 2, Plaintiff, vs. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, Defendant. ____________________________________/ Related Cases: 08-80232, 08-80380, 08-80381, 08-80994, 08-80993, 08-80811, 08-80893, 09-80469, 09-80591, 09-80656, 09-80802, 09-81092, ____________________________________/ PLAINTIFFS JANE DOE NOS. 2-8’ RESPONSE AND MOTION TO STRIKE ARGUMENT PORTION OF DEFENDANT’S NOTICE OF NINETY DAYS EXPIRING Plaintiffs, Jane Does Nos. 2-8, by and through undersigned counsel, and pursuant to Southern District of Florida Local Rule 7.1.B.3, hereby file this Response and Motion to Strike Argument Portion of Defendant’s Notice of Ninety Days Expiring, and state as follows: 1. On October 14, 2009, Defendant Jeffrey Epstein (“Epstein”) filed a Notice of Ninety Days Expiring (D.E. 347) (the “Notice”), alerting this Court to the passage of ninety days since various motions have been fully briefed. 2. While Plaintiffs share Epstein’s interest in having these motions decided so that discovery in these cases can move forward efficiently, Plaintiffs object and move to strike the argument portion of the Notice. Epstein improperly uses the Notice as a vehicle to make additional legal arguments on motions that have been fully briefed, and Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 349 Entered on FLSD Docket 10/14/2009

Page 1 of 4 2 thereby attempt to prejudice the Plaintiffs. In particular, in paragraphs 6-9, Epstein argues his Motions to Compel, and seeks to attack the Plaintiffs’ arguments and approach to discovery. This is inappropriate and unauthorized by S.D.Fla.L.R. 7.1.B.3. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs, Jane Doe Nos. 2-8, respectfully request an Order striking the argument portion of Jeffrey Epstein’s “Notice of Ninety Days Expiring” (D.E. 347) in its entirety, and all other and further relief this Court deems just and proper. Dated: October 14, 2009. Respectfully submitted, By: s/ Adam D. Horowitz Stuart S. Mermelstein (FL Bar No. 947245) [email protected] Adam D.
