The Consolidation Order [DE 98] in this case clearly allows Epstein to depose her only a single time. Epstein has absolutely no basis for unilaterally setting her for a second deposition. Therefore, the Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 378 Entered on FLSD Docket 10/29/2009
Page 4 of 8 CASE NO: 08-CV-80119-MARRA/JOHNSON 5 Court should enter a protective order and should sanction Epstein for forcing Jane Doe to seek such an order. BACKGROUND FACTS 1. On May 14, 2009, this Court entered a consolidation order providing: “Defendant is limited to a single deposition of each Plaintiff, during which Defendant may depose the Plaintiff as both a party and a witness.” [DE 98 at 4]. 2. On September 20, 2009, Epstein took Jane Doe’s videotaped deposition from 9:37 a.m. until 6:10 p.m. (approximately eight hours). 3. On October 20, 2009, Epstein sent notice to Jane Doe’s counsel that he was setting Jane Doe for another videotaped deposition, on November 13, 2009, at 9:30 a.m. No limit on the length of the deposition was indicated. Epstein did not seek leave of Court to set this deposition. ANALYSIS 4. Epstein’s act of setting Jane Doe for a second, videotaped deposition in violation of the Court’s consolidation order is (yet another) act of harassment and abuse by him. The Court’s order could not be clearer, limiting Epstein to a “single deposition of each Plaintiff.” Epstein is willfully flouting that order. 5. The only basis that Epstein’s counsel has indicated for this gross disregard of the Court’s order is that the order also waives the seven-hour limit “so as to allow each party an adequate opportunity to develop fully the record as it may relate to that party.” [DE 98 at 4]. But this waiver of the time limit can hardly provide a basis for Epstein subjecting her to protracted questioning. Instead, this waiver was designed to Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 378 Entered on FLSD Docket 10/29/2009
Page 5 of 8 CASE NO: 08-CV-80119-MARRA/JOHNSON 6 insure that each individual plaintiff would have an opportunity to pursue issues as needed in the deposition of a single witness. This waiver can hardly be reasonably thought to provide a basis for subjecting a plaintiff who has been sexually assaulted by the defendant to endure even longer questioning at his hands. The intent of the Court’s waiver provision related to the seven hour time limit was drafted after thoughtfully recognizing that with multiple Plaintiffs and thus multiple attorneys, each party should have an opportunity to question each witness. Epstein has extrapolated an absurd meaning to this waiver in an attempt to harass Plaintiff Jane Doe. 6. Indeed, the matter is so clear-cut that Epstein should be sanctioned for forcing Jane Doe to file a motion for a protective order. Jane Doe’s counsel respectfully requests an award of attorney’s fees for having to file this pleading to enforce the Court’s order. The Court’s consolidation order specifically warns that “[a]ny abuses of this waiver [of the seven-hour limit] shall result in the imposition of appropriate sanctions against the offending party.” [DE 98 at 4-5]. The sanction of an attorneys’ fee award is appropriate here. CONCLUSION For all these reasons, the Court should enforce its consolidation order and bar any further deposition of Jane Doe by Epstein. The Court should also award attorney’s fees to Jane Doe’s counsel for being forced to file this pleading to enforce the Court’s previously-entered order.
