Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 113 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/05/2009 Page 1 of 4 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA CASE NO.: 08-CV-80811-CIV-MARRA/JOHNSON Plaintiff, VS. Y EPSTEIN and Defendants. PLAINTIFF, M.'S, CONDITIONAL NOTICE OF INTENT TO EXCLUSIVELY RELY ON STATUTORY DAMAGES PROVIDED BY 18 U.S.C. 42255 Plaintiff, , by and through her undersigned counsel, hereby files her Conditional Notice of Intent to Exclusively Rely on Statutory Damages Provided by 18 U.S.C. §2255, and in support thereof states as follows: 1. This is an action to recover money damages against Defendant, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, for acts of sexual abuse and prostitution committed upon the then- minor, 2. Plaintiff has plead thirty separate counts against EPSTEIN for separate incidences of abuse committed by EPSTEIN against Plaintiff pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §2255. 18 U.S.C. §2255, entitled "Civil remedy for personal injuries", creates a private right of action for minor children who were the victim of certain enumerated sex offenses. 18 U.S.C. §2255 also creates a statutory floor for the amount of damages a EFTA00175315
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 113 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/05/2009 Page 2 of 4 victim can recover for a violation of same. Plaintiff has also alleged a single count of Sexual Battery against EPSTEIN as well. 3. There presently exists between the Plaintiff and EPSTEIN a disagreement as to whether the statutory damage floor established in 18 U.S.C. §2255 is recoverable for each commission of an enumerated sex offense listed in 18 U.S.C. §2255, or whether the statutory damage floor can only be enforced once, regardless of how many times a defendant perpetrates an enumerated sex offense against a minor victim. 4. This disagreement between the parties is properly the subject of Defendant's Motion to Dismiss First Amended Complaint For Failure to State a Cause of Action, and Motion For More Definite Statement; Motion to Strike, and Supporting Memorandum of Law (D.E. 47) which is currently pending before this Court. 5. In the event that the Court rules that the Plaintiff is entitled to recover the statutory damages created by 18 U.S.C. §2255 for each violation', Plaintiff will be pursuing only those statutory damages, and will not pursue damages available at common law. 6. Should the Court rule however, that the statutory damage floor can only be applied once, Plaintiff will be pursuing any and all damages available to her, whether they be pursuant to statute or by common law. I The parties also disagree about the amount the statutory damage floor should be for this case. 18 U.S.C. §2255 was amended In 2006 to Increase the floor from $50,000 to $150,000. The parties essentially disagree about which version of 18 U.S.C. §2255 should apply in this case. EFTA00175316

Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 35 Entered on FLSD Docket 01/07/2009 Page 1 of 7 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA CASE NO.: 08-CV-80811-MARRA/JOHNSON v. Plaintiff, JEFFREY EPSTEIN and Defendants, DEFENDANT JEFFREY EPSTEIN'S MOTION TO DISMISS COMPLAINT FOR FAILURE TO STATE A CAUSE OF ACTION Defendant, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, ("EPSTEIN"), by and through his undersigned counsel, moves to dismiss Count I of Plaintiffs Complaint for failure to state a cause of action. Rule 12(b)(6), Fed.R.Civ.P. (2008). Count II is directed only to Defendant who has not yet been served. In support of dismissal, Defendant states: Plaintiff, , attempts to assert a cause of action against EPSTEIN in Count I of her Complaint. A review of the inadequate Complaint allegations establishes that Plaintiff has failed to state a cause of action under either common or statutory law, and thus, Count I against EPSTEIN is required to be dismissed. Rule 12(b)(6), Fla.R.Civ.P. Count I alleges in part that while Plaintiff was a minor, beginning when she was 14 — 6. On numerous occasions ..., JEFFREY EPSTEIN intentionally induced and/or seduced the Plaintiff into performing various acts of lewd and lascivious conduct and/or sexual performances in his presence. ... 7. On numerous occasions ..., JEFFREY EPSTEIN performed various acts of lewd and lascivious conduct in the presence of the Plaintiff. ... EFTA00175319
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 35 Entered on FLSD Docket 01/07/2009 Page 2 of 7 v. Epstein, et al. 8. On numerous occasions ..., JEFFREY EPSTEIN touched the Plaintiff's breasts and genitilia. 9. As a result, the Plaintiff suffered mental anguish, mental pain and suffering, psychic trauma, and a loss of the capacity for the enjoyment of life. (Plaintiff alleges in her Complaint, ¶2, that she is presently 21 years old. The suit was originally filed in Florida state court, Palm Beach County Circuit Court, on February 21, 2008.) Count I is lacking in sufficient factual allegations to allege the necessary elements to state a cause of action either under common or statutory law. In fact, Count I fails to allege any recognizable elements. There is absolutely no reference in Count I as to whether Plaintiff is attempting to assert some type of common law cause of action or as to whether she is relying on some type of Federal or State of Florida statute that might give rise to a civil cause of action. In addition, the Complaint generally alleges that "on numerous occasions," as opposed to alleging specific dates and times. Finally, the Complaint very generally references "lewd and lascivious conduct and/or sexual performances" without any underlying factual allegations. Accordingly, Count I is subject to dismissal for failure to state a cause of action. Supporting Memorandum of Law Rule 12(b)(61 Motion To Dismiss As established by the Supreme Court in Bell Atlantic Corp. V. Twomblv, 127 S.Ct. 1955 (2007), a motion to dismiss should be granted if the plaintiff does not plead "enough facts to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face." Id, at 1974. Although the complaint need not provide detailed factual allegations, the basis for relief in the complaint must state "more than labels and conclusions, and a formulaic EFTA00175320
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 35 Entered on FLSD Docket 01/07/2009 Page 3 of 7 . v. Epstein, et at 0,3 recitation of the elements of a cause of action will not do." Id, at 1965. Further, "[f]actual allegations must be enough to raise a right to relief above the speculative level ... on the assumption that all the allegations in the complaint are true (even if doubtful in fact)." Id. On a motion to dismiss, the well pleaded allegations of plaintiffs complaint are taken as true and construed in the light most favorable to the plaintiff. M.T.V. v. DeKalb County Sch. Dist., 446 F.3d 1153, 1156 (11th Cir.2006). Significantly, the Supreme Court in Bell Atlantic Corp. V. Twombly abrogated the often cited observation that "a complaint should not be dismissed for failure to state a claim unless it appears beyond doubt that the plaintiff can prove no set of facts in support of his claim that would entitle him to relief." Id, (abrogating and quoting Conley v. Gibson, 355 U.S. 41, 45-46, 78 S.Ct. 99, 102, 2 L.Ed.2d 80 (1957)). The Supreme Court rejected the notion that "a wholly conclusory statement of claim [can] survive a motion to dismiss whenever the pleadings le[ave] open the possibility that a plaintiff might later establish some 'set of [undisclosed] facts' to support recovery." Id. As explained by the Supreme Court in Bell Atlantic Corp., supra at 1664-65: While a complaint attacked by a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss does not need detailed factual allegations, ibid.; Sanivag.i. American Bd. of Psychiatry and Neurology, Inc., 40 F.3d 247, 251 1..7 19941, a plaintiffs obligation to provide the "grounds" of his "entitle[ment] to relief' requires more than labels and conclusions, and a formulaic recitation of the elements of a cause of action will not do, see Papasan v. Allain, 478 U.S. 265, 286, 106 S.Ct. 2932, 92 L.Ed.2d 209 (1986) (on a motion to dismiss, courts "are not bound to accept as true a legal conclusion couched as a factual allegation"). Factual allegations 11211st be enough to raise a right to relief above the speculative level, see 51. Wright & A. Miller, Federal Practice and Procedure 4 1216, pp. 235-236 (3d ed.2004) (hereinafter Wright & Miller) ("[T]he pleading must contain something more ... than ... a statement of facts that merely creates a suspicion [of] a legally cognizable right of action"), on the assumption that all the allegations in the complaint are true (even if EFTA00175321
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 35 Entered on FLSD Docket 01/07/2009 Page 4 of 7 . v. Epstein, et al. age 4 doubtful in fact), see, e.g., Swierkiewicz v. Sorema N. A., 534 U.S. 506. 508, n. 1, 122 S.Ct. 992. 152 L.Ed.2d 1 (2002); Neitzke v. Williams. 490 U.S. 319, 327, 109 S.Ct. 1827. 104 L.Ed.2d 338 (1989) (" Rule 12(b)(6) does not countenance ... dismissals based on a judge's disbelief of a complaint's factual allegations"); Scheuer v. Rhodes, 416 U.S. 232, 236. 94 S.Ct. 1683, 40 L.Ed.2d 90 (1974) (a well-pleaded complaint may proceed even if it appears "that a recovery is very remote and unlikely"). In discussing Twombly, the Eleventh Circuit in Watts v. Fla. International Univ., 495 F.3d 1289, 1295 (111h Cir. 2007), noted - "The Supreme Court's most recent formulation of the pleading specificity standard is that 'stating such a claim requires a complaint with enough factual matter (taken as true) to suggest' the required element." In order to sufficiently allege the claim, the complaint is required to identify "facts that are suggestive enough to render [the element] plausible." Watts 495 F.3d at 1296 (quoting Twombly, 127 S.Ct. at 1965). As jurisdiction is based on diversity, it is well settled that this Court is to apply Florida substantive law in this action. Erie R.Co. v. Tompkins, 58 S.Ct. 817 (1938). On its face, Count I completely fails to allege either the necessary elements of any cause of action or the necessary underlying factual allegations. As quoted above, Count I makes general references to "lewd and lascivious conduct and/or sexual performances" without any specific statutory or common law reference. Florida Statutes, Chapter 800, Title XLVI — CRIMES, entitled "Lewdness, Indecent Exposure," are criminal statutes'. Assuming for the sake of argument that Plaintiff means to rely on these statutes, none of the statutes contained in Chapter 800 create a private right of action. See H800.02, 800.03, 800.04, Fla. Stat. Rather, the ' This action began in Florida state court, Palm Beach County 15th Judicial Circuit Court, and was removed to Federal Court pursuant to a Notice of Removal filed by Defendants. EFTA00175322
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 35 Entered on FLSD Docket 01/07/2009 Page 5 of 7 . v. Epstein, et al. Page 5 statutes set forth acts subject to criminal prosecution and the criminal penalties therefor, if proven. See generally, Am. Home Assurance Co. v. Plaza Materials Corp., 908 So.2d 360, 374 (Fla. 2005)("not every statutory violation carries a civil remedy'); and Miami Herald Pub. Co. v. Ferre, 636 F.Supp. 970 (S.D. Fla. 1985)(violation of Florida's criminal extortion statute does not give rise to civil cause of action for damages). According, Count I is required to be dismissed as Chapter 800, which references lewd conduct, does not create a private right of action. Mantooth v. Richards, 557 So.2d 646 (Fla. 4th DCA 1990), per curiam, (Dismissal of plaintiffs civil complaint affirmed where parental kidnapping statutes concerned only criminal violations and did not create a civil remedy). As well, the Count I allegations make absolutely no reference to any viable common law cause of action; Defendant should not be required to guess or speculate as to the nature of Plaintiffs cause of action. Even if Defendant were to speculate as to the supposed cause of action, these causes of action (common law or otherwise) have not been sufficiently alleged. On its face, Count I is completely lacking as to any common law elements or the underlying factual allegations to support each element, and thus, Count I is required to be dismissed. Finally, as noted, there are no allegations as to time regarding the alleged "numerous occasions." Pursuant to Rule 9(f), Fed.R.Civ.P., "pleadings of time or place is material when testing the sufficiency of a pleading." Conclusion EFTA00175323
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 35 Entered on FLSD Docket 01/07/2009 Page 6 of 7 116 v. Epstein, et al. Pursuant to applicable law, Count I of Plaintiff's Complaint is required to be dismissed for failure to state a cause of action. On its face, Count I fails to allege a cause of action either under statutory or common law against Defendant EPSTEIN. Count I fails to plead any requisite elements or the necessary underlying facts. WHEREFORE, Defendant requests that Count I of Plaintiffs Complaint be dismissed for failure to state a cause of action.

Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 47 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2009 Page 1 of 21 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA CASE NO.: 08-CV-80811-MARRA/JOHNSON In A., Plaintiff, v. US EPSTEIN and Defendants, DEFENDANT JEFFREY EPSTEIN'S MOTION TO DISMISS FIRST AMENDED COMPLAINT FOR FAILURE TO STATE A CAUSE OF ACTION, AND MOTION FOR MORE DEFINITE STATEMENT; MOTION TO STRIKE, AND SUPPORTING MEMORANDUM OF LAW Defendant, JEFFREY EPSTEIN, ("EPSTEIN"), by and through his undersigned counsel, moves to dismiss Count I through XXXI of Plaintiff's First Amended Complaint for failure to state a cause of action, and for more definite statement, or to strike, as specified herein. Rule 12(b)(6), (e) and (f), Fed.R.Civ.P. (2008); Local Gen. Rule 7.1 (S.D. Fla. 2008). In support of dismissal, Defendant states: The First Amended Complaint attempts to allege 32 counts. Counts I through XXX are purportedly brought pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §2255 - Civil Remedies for Personal Injuries; Count XXXI is entitled "Sexual Battery," and Count XXXII is entitled "Conspiracy to Commit Tortious Assault only against Defendant, ." Under the heading "Factual Allegations" of the First Amended Complaint, Plaintiff also references numerous federal and state criminal statutes, but fails to allege whether or not she is attempting to assert claims based on these statutes.

Page 3 assumption that all the allegations in the complaint are true (even if doubtful in fact)." Id. On a motion to dismiss, the well pleaded allegations of plaintiffs complaint are taken as true and construed in the light most favorable to the plaintiff. M.T.V. v. DeKalb County Sch. Dist., 446 F.3d 1153, 1156 (11th Cir.2006). Significantly, the Supreme Court in Bell Atlantic Corp. V. Twombly abrogated the often cited observation that "a complaint should not be dismissed for failure to state a claim unless it appears beyond doubt that the plaintiff can prove no set of facts in support of his claim that would entitle him to relief." Id, (abrogating and quoting Conley v. Gibson, 355 U.S. 41, 45-46, 78 S.Ct. 99, 102, 2 L.Ed.2d 80 (1957)). The Supreme Court rejected the notion that "a wholly conclusory statement of claim [can] survive a motion to dismiss whenever the pleadings le[ave] open the possibility that a plaintiff might later establish some 'set of [undisclosed] facts' to support recovery." Id. As explained by the Supreme Court in Bell Atlantic Corp., supra at 1664-65: While a complaint attacked by a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss does not need detailed factual allegations ibid.: Sanjuan v. American Bd. of Psychiatry and Neurology, Inc., 40 F.3d 247, 251 (C.A.7 1994), a plaintiffs obligation to provide the "grounds" of his "entitle[ment] to relief' requires more than labels and conclusions, and a formulaic recitation of the elements of a cause of action will not do, see Papasan v. Allain, 478 U.S. 265, 286, 106 S.Ct. 2932, 92 L.Ed.2d 209 (1986) (on a motion to dismiss, courts "are not bound to accept as true a legal conclusion couched as a factual allegation"). Factual allegations must be enough to raise a right to relief above the speculative level, see 5 C. Wright & A. Miller, Federal Practice and Procedure § 1216, pp. 235-236 (3d ed.2004) (hereinafter Wright & Miller) ("[T]he pleading must contain something more ... than ... a statement of facts that merely creates a suspicion (of] a legally cognizable right of action"), on the assumption that all the allegations in the complaint are true (even if doubtful in fact), see, e.g., Swierkiewicz v. Sorema N. A., 534 U.S. 506, 508, n. 1, 122 S.Ct. 992, 152 L.Ed.2d 1 (2002); Neitzke v.

Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 47 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2009 Page 5 of 21 M . v. Epstein, et al. Page 5 Contrary to Plaintiff's attempted assertion of 30 separate counts pursuant to 18 U.S.C.A. §2255 - Civil Remedy for Personal Injuries, this statute creates a single federal cause of action or "civil remedy" for a minor victim of sexual, abuse, molestation and exploitation. Under the plain meaning of the statutory text, §2255 does not create separate causes of action on behalf of a minor against a defendant on a "per violation" basis. No where in the statutory text is there any reference to the civil remedy afforded by this statute as being on a "per violation" basis. 18 U.S.C. 2255(a) creates a civil remedy for "a minor who is a victim of a violation of section 2241(c), 2242, 2243, 2251, 2251A, 2252, 2252A, 2260, 2421, 2422, or 2423 of this title and who suffers personal injury as a result of such violation ... ." See Smith v. Husband 428 F.Supp.2d 432 (E.D. Va. 2006); Smith v. Husband, 376 F.Supp.2d 603 (E.D. Va. 2006); Doe v. Liberatore, 478 F.Supp.2d 742, 754 (M.D. Pa. 2007); and the recent cases in front of this court on Defendant's Motions to Dismiss and For More Definite Statement — Doe No. 2 v. Epstein 2009 WL 383332 (S.D. Fla. Feb. 12, 2009). Doe No. 3 v. Epstein, 2009 WL 383330 (S.D. Fla. Feb. 12, 2009); Doe No. 4 v. Epstein, 2009 WL 383286 (S.D. Fla. Feb. 12, 2009); and Doe No. 5 v. Epstein, 2009 WL 383383 (S.D. Fla. Feb. 12, 2009). There is no reported case supporting Plaintiff's tortured and nonsensical interpretation of §2255. In all of these cases (cited above), each of the Plaintiffs brought a single count or cause of action attempting to allege numerous violations of the "predicate acts" specifically identified in §2255. "18 U.S.C. §2255 gives victims of sexual conduct who are minors a private right of action." Martinez v. White 492 EFTA00175344
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 47 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2009 Page 7 of 21 v. Epstein, et al. age v. Husband, 376 F.Supp.2d at 610 ("When interpreting a statute, [a court's] inquiry begins with the text."). "The Court must first look to the plain meaning of the words, and scrutinize the statute's 'language, structure, and purpose." Id. In addition, in construing a statute, a court is to presume that the legislature said what it means and means what it said, and not add language or give some absurd or strained interpretation. As stated in CBS. Inc supra at 1228 — "Those who ask courts to give effect to perceived legislative intent by interpreting statutory language contrary to its plain and unambiguous meaning are in effect asking courts to alter that language, and '[c]ourts have no authority to alter statutory language.... We cannot add to the terms of Ethel provision what Congress left out.' Merritt, 120 F.3d at 1187." See also Dodd v. U.S. 125 S.Ct. 2478 (2005); 73 Am.Jur.2d Statutes §124. Title 18 of the U.S.C.. is entitled "Crimes and Criminal Procedure." §2255 is contained in "Part I. Crimes, Chap. 110. Sexual Exploitation and Other Abuse of Children." 18 U.S.C. §2255 (2003), is entitled Civil remedy for personal injuries, and provides: (a) Any minor who is a victim of a violation of section 2241(c), 2242, 2243, 2251, 2251A, 2252, 2252A, 2260, 2421, 2422, or 2423 of this title and who suffers personal injury as a result of such violation may sue in any appropriate United States District Court and shall recover the actual damages such minor sustains and the cost of the suit, including a reasonable attorney's fee. Any minor as described in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have sustained damages of no less than $50,000 in value. (b) Any action commenced under this section shall be barred unless the complaint is filed within six years after the right of action first accrues or in the case of a person under a legal disability, not later than three years after the disability. Reading the entire statute in context, no where is there any language indicating that a minor plaintiff has a private right of action against a defendant "per violation." EFTA00175345
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 47 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2009 Page 9 of 21 v. Epstein, et al. iage 9 brought a single cause of action, based on allegations of multiple violations of the §2255 predicate acts. Furthermore, the court refused to add a venue interpretation that simply was not written into the statutory text. See other §2255 cases cited herein. For an example of a statute wherein the legislature included the language "for each violation" in assessing a "civil penalty," see 18 U.S.C. §216, entitled "Penalties and injunctions," of Chapter 11 — "Bribery, Graft, and Conflict of Interests," also contained in Title 18 — "Crimes and Criminal Procedure." Subsection (b) of §216 gives the United States Attorney General the power to bring a "civil action ... against any person who engages in conduct constituting an offense under" specified sections of the bribery, graft, and conflicts of interest statutes. The statute further provides in relevant part that "upon proof of such conduct by a preponderance of the evidence, such person shall be subject to a civil penalty of not more than $50,000 for each violation or the amount of compensation which the person received or offered for the prohibited conduct, which ever amount is greater." As noted, 18 U.S.C. §2255 does not include such language. Accordingly, Plaintiffs multiple counts brought pursuant to §2255 are required to be dismissed for failure to state multiple causes of action. B. Also requiring dismissal Plaintiff has failed to sufficiently allege the requisite 52255 predicate acts. Also requiring dismissal of Plaintiffs purported §2255 claim(s) is Plaintiff's failure to sufficiently allege any violation of a requisite predicate act as specifically identified in subsection (a) of the statute quoted above. Relevant to Plaintiff's complaint, 18 U.S.C. 2255(a) creates a civil remedy for "a minor who is a victim of a violation of section 2241(c), 2242, 2243, 2251, 2251A, 2252, 2252A, 2260, 2421, 2422, or 2423 of this title EFTA00175346
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 47 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2009 Page 11 of 21 . v. Epstein, et al. 1111 the standard of pleading as established in Twombly, supra, Plaintiff has failed to sufficiently allege the requisite elements of a §2255 claim, thus requiring dismissal; for failure to state a cause of action. C. 18 U.S.C. 42255 does not allow for the recovery of punitive damages. Thus, Plaintiff's request for punitive damages under 42255 is required to be dismissed or stricken. In each of the improperly asserted Counts I through XXX, Plaintiff also seeks punitive damages. A plain reading of 18 U.S.C. §2255, quoted above herein, establishes that the statute does not allow for the recovery of punitive damages. Had Congress wanted to allow for such a recovery, it could have easily written such language into the damages provision of the statute. The legislative body chose not to write a punitive damages component into §2255 as it has done in other statutes affording civil remedies. In relevant part, §2255 reads - Any minor who is a victim of a violation of section ... of this title and who suffers personal injury as a result of such violation may sue in any appropriate United States District Court and shall recover the actual damages such minor sustains and the cost of the suit, including a reasonable attorney's fee. Any minor as described in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have sustained damages of no less than $50,000 in value." See discussion of rules of statutory construction in part III.A. herein. See subsection (f)(2) of 18 U.S.C. §2252A, entitled Certain activities relating to material constituting or containing child pornography, also contained in Chapter 110, Part I, Crimes, within which specific reference is made to "compensatory and punitive damages" in setting forth the relief which may be afforded to a plaintiff in bringing a civil action under §2252A(f).

Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 47 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2009 Page 13 of 21 v. Epstein, et al. R/13 statute prohibits a number of activities involving criminal 'proceeds." Id, at 2023. Noting that the term "proceeds" was not defined in the statute, the Supreme Court stated the well settled principle that "when a term is undefined, we give it its ordinary meaning." Id, at 2024. Under the ordinary meaning principle, the government's position was that proceeds meant "receipts," while the defendant's position was that proceeds meant "profits." The Supreme Court recognized that under either of the proffered "ordinary meanings," the provisions of the federal money-laundering statute were still coherent, not redundant, and the statute was not rendered "utterly absurd." Under such a situation, citing to a long line of cases and the established rule of lenity, "the tie must go to the defendant." Id, at 2025. See portion of Court's opinion quoted above. "Because the 'profits' definition of 'proceeds' is always more defendant friendly that the 'receipts' definition, the rule of lenity dictates that it should be adopted." Id. Plaintiffs position would subject Defendant EPSTEIN to a punishment that is not clearly prescribed — an unwritten multiplier of the "actual damages" or the presumptive damages. The rule of lenity requires that Defendant's interpretation of the remedy afforded under §2255 be adopted. In addition, under the Due Process Clause's basic principle of fair warning - ... a criminal statute must give fair warning of the conduct that it makes a crime ... . As was said in United States v. Harriss, 347 U.S. 612, 617, 74 S.Ct. 808, 812, 98 L.Ed. 989, 'The constitutional requirement of definiteness is violated by a criminal statute that fails to give a person of ordinary intelligence fair notice that his contemplated conduct is forbidden by the statute. The underlying principle is that no man shall be held criminally responsible for conduct which he could not reasonably understand to be proscribed.' EFTA00175348

In ¶203 Plaintiff also alleges that Defendant's "tortious commission of sexual battery upon were (sic) done willfully and maliciously." Supporting Defendant's position that Plaintiff has failed to state a cause of action in Count )OO0, 18 U.S.C. O2241(c), not §2241 in its entirety, as discussed above, is one of the predicate acts, along with 2242, 2243, 2421, and 2423, designated in the federal civil remedy statute — 18 U.S.C. §2255. Plaintiff attempted and failed to allege such a claim in the previous counts. Defendant can find no criminal offenses in any "Chapter 800 of the Federal Codes" which give rise to a civil cause of action. The same is true for Plaintiffs reference to the Florida Statutes. Not one of the statutes referenced creates a private cause of action or affords a civil remedy on behalf of the alleged victim of the criminal offense." (Except for Florida Statute §39.01, all of the statutes referenced by Plaintiff are contained Title XLVI. Crimes of the Florida Statutes).

Introduction and Argument Plaintiff, in the instant matter, did not draft her own Response to the Motion to Stay. Instead, Plaintiff incorporated Plaintiffs' responses to the motion to stay in certain related matters (DE 64), and adopted those arguments as her own.I Plaintiff's Response in Opposition challenging the stay should not prevail when 5m Amendment principles are at issue and when there exists a real, substantial and not remote possibility that Epstein may face criminal prosecution by the United States Attorneys' Office ("USAO") if the USAO unilaterally determines that Epstein somehow violated that certain Non- Prosecution Agreement dated June 30, 2008 ("NPA") and/or if Epstein is forced to waive those 5th Amendment rights and participate in civil discovery in order to defend this civil action. Accordingly, Epstein adopts his arguments set forth in the Reply to Jane Doe's Response In Opposition filed in 08-CIV-80893 (DE 54) and incorporates same herein by reference. EFTA00175353
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 81 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/13/2009 Page 3 of 7 Page 3 significant fact that a stay may be issued in light of an ongoing investigation. It is clear from the NPA and Jack Goldberger's Affidavit (attached to the Motion to Stay) ". . .that the criminal matters against Epstein remain ongoing until the NPA expires by its terms in late 2010. . ., and the threat of criminal prosecution against Epstein by the USAO continues presently and through late 2010." See Jack Goldberger's Affidavit, ¶5 (attached to the Motion to Stay)(DE 51). In fact, the FBI refused to provide information regarding this case and other related cases filed against Epstein ". . .stating the materials are at this time exempt from disclosure because they are in an investigative file, i.e., the matter is still an ongoing criminal investigation." See Jack Goldberger's Affidavit, ¶7 (attached to the Motion to Stay)(DE 51). Additionally, Plaintiff's response downplays the fact that civil discovery may result in the USAO claiming a breach of the NPA. Epstein wishes to vigorously defend this case and others filed against him; however, he does not wish to risk waiver of his 5th Amendment privileges, at least before the NPA expires or any investigation is closed. Further, Plaintiff adopts the arguments set forth in Jane Doe's Response to the Motion to Stay filed in 08-CIV-80893, which asserts that the NPA is not attached to Epstein's Motion to Stay. The Court has a copy of the NPA. While it may be sealed, this Court may review same, in camera. As such, Plaintiff's Best Evidence argument (as adopted) is entirely misplaced and should be disregarded. a. Justice Requires The Entry of A Stay As set out in the Motion to Stay, once the NPA expires, EPSTEIN intends to testify to all relevant and non-objectionable inquiries made to him in discovery be it a deposition, in interrogatories or in production requests. However, the current circumstances are such that by 3 EFTA00175354

Here, Epstein is not required to "contemplate an in haec verba iron-clad comparison of separate issues by direct proof." St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company v. U.S., 24 CI.Ct at 516. Instead, a reading of the complaint, the NPA (in camera), the pleadings in support of and against Epstein's Motion to Stay along with other pleadings in the clerk's file, makes it clear that the facts in the instant matter and those in the ongoing investigation are "related" and/or "substantially similar." Id. As such, permitting this civil action to go forward would create a hardship on Epstein in that he will be forced to invoke his 5th Amendment Privilege and risk loosing this case by virtue of not being able to present evidence, or waive that right and risk a potential criminal prosecution. Eastwood v, U.S., 2008 WL 5412857, *1 (E.D. Tenn.))("When a party to a civil action is subject to criminal proceedings and/or investigations that relate to such civil action, courts will often stay the civil proceeding so as to prevent the use of civil discovery and evidentiary procedures to obtain evidence for use in the criminal matter). Id. Courts will also stay a civil case to preserve 5th Amendment rights. Id, Further, a comparison of Fed.R.Civ. Pro. 26 may expand the rights of criminal discovery beyond the limits of Fed.R.Crim.Pro. 16(b). Epstein satisfies the requirements to stay this action as set forth in St. Paul Fire and in Eastwood, including the similarity of issues underlying the civil litigation and ongoing criminal investigation. As such, a stay should be entered in the instant matter. 5se also U.S. v. $75,020.00 in United States Funds, et al., 2009 WL 1010359 (M.D. G.a. 2009). 5 EFTA00175355

Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 78 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/08/2009 Page 3 of 25 v. Epstein, et al. 113 These provisions demonstrate that retroactive statutes raise particular concerns. The Legislature's unmatched powers allow it to sweep away settled expectations suddenly and without individualized consideration. Its responsivity to political pressures poses a risk that it may be tempted to use retroactive legislation as a means of retribution against unpopular groups or individuals. As Justice Marshall observed in his opinion for "1498 the Court in Weaver v. Graham, 450 U.S. 24, 101 S.Ct. 960, 67 L.Ed.2d 17 (1981), the Ex Post Facto Clause not only ensures that individuals have "fair warning" about the effect of criminal statutes, but also "restricts governmental power by restraining arbitrary and potentially vindictive legislation." td., at 28-29, 101 S.Ct., at 963-964 (citations omitted). FN20 FN20. See Richmond v. J. A. Croson Co., 488 U.S. 469, 513-514, 109 S.Ct. 706, 732, 102 L.Ed.2d 854 (1989) ("Legislatures are primarily policymaking bodies that promulgate rules to govern future conduct. The constitutional prohibitions against the enactment of ex post facto laws and bills of attainder reflect a valid concern about the use of the political process to punish or characterize past conduct of private citizens. It is the judicial system, rather than the legislative process, that is best equipped to identify past wrongdoers and to fashion remedies that will create the conditions that presumably would have existed had no wrong been committed") (STEVENS, J., concurring in part and concurring in judgment); James v. United States, 366 U.S. 213, 247, n. 3, 81 S.Ct. 1052, 1052, n. 3, 6 L.Ed.2d 246 (1961) (retroactive punitive measures may reflect "a purpose not to prevent dangerous conduct generally but to impose by legislation a penalty against specific persons or classes of persons"). As discussed more fully below herein, these well entrenched constitutional protections and presumptions against retroactive application of legislation establish that the version of 18 U.S.C. §2255 (2003) in effect at the time of the alleged conduct applies to the instant action, and not the amended version as claimed by Plaintiff. B. Not only is there no clear express intent stating that the statute is to apply retroactively, but applying the current version of the statute, as amended in 2006, would be in clear violation of the Ex Post Facto Clause of the United States Constitution as it would be applied to events occurring before its enactment and would increase the EFTA00175358

Page 5 2006 amended version of §2255 without any legal discussion supporting a retroactive application. (See p. 3 of Plaintiffs response). §2255 is contained in Title 18 of the United States Codes - "Crimes and Criminal Procedure, Part I. Crimes, Chap. 110. Sexual Exploitation and Other Abuse of Children? 18 U.S.C. §2255 (2003), is entitled Civil remedy for personal injuries, and imposes a presumptive minimum of damages in the amount of $50,000.00, should Plaintiff prove a violation of the specified criminal statutes, and suffer personal injury with actual damages. Thus, the effect of the 2006 amendments, effective July 27, 2006, would be to triple the amount of the statutory minimum previously in effect during the time of the alleged acts. (Taking Plaintiffs position that the presumptive minimum is meant to be multiplied per violation — the damages would be 4.5 million. The express language of the statute has no multiplier.) No case has yet decided the specific issue before this Court —whether application of the 2006 version of §2255, which increased the statutorily presumed minimum damages from $50,000 to $150,000, regardless of the actual amount of damages suffered and proven, is prohibited from application under the Ex Post Fact Clause to the specified criminal acts occurring prior to the statutes effective date of July 27, 2006. The statute, as amended in 2006, contains no language stating that the application is to be retroactive. Thus, there is no manifest intent that the statute is to apply retroactively, and, accordingly, the statute in effect during the time of the alleged conduct is to apply. Landgraf v.

Mandatory Victim Restitution Act of 1996 (MVRA) to the defendant whose criminal conduct occurred before the effective date of the statute, 18 U.S.C. §3664(f)(1)(A), even though the guilty plea and sentencing proceeding occurred after the effective date of the statute. On July 19, 1996, the defendant Siegel pleaded guilty to various charges under 18 U.S.C. §371 and §1956(a)(1)(A), (conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, bank fraud, and laundering of money instruments; and money laundering). He was sentenced on March 7, 1997. As part of his sentence, Siegel was ordered to pay $1,207,000.00 in restitution under the MVRA which became effective on April 24, 1996. Pub.L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214, 1229-1236. The 1996 amendments to MVRA required that the district court must order restitution in the full amount of the victim's loss without consideration of the defendant's ability to pay. Prior to the enactment of the MVRA and under the former 18 U.S.C. §3664(a) of the Victim and Witness Protection Act of 1982 (VWPA), Pub.l. No. 97-291, 96 Stat. 1248, the court was required to consider, among other factors, the defendant's ability to pay in determining the amount of restitution. When the MVRA was enacted in 1996, Congress stated that the amendments to the VWPA "shall, to the extent constitutionally permissible, be effective for sentencing proceedings in cases in which the defendant is convicted on or after the date of enactment of this Act [Apr. 24, 1996)."

(Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 78 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/08/2009 Page 9 of 25 v. Epstein, et al. Page 9 In the instant case, in answering the first question, it is clear that that imposition of a minimum amount of damages, regardless of the amount of actual damages suffered and proven by a minor victim, is meant to be a penalty or punishment. See statutory text and House Bill Reports, cited above herein, consistently referring to the presumptive minimum damages amount under §2255 as "punishment" or "penalties? According to the Ex Post Facto doctrine, although §2255 is labeled a "civil remedy," such label is not dispositive; "if the effect of the statute is to impose punishment that is criminal in nature, the ex post facto clause is implicated." See generally, Roman Catholic Bishop of Oakland v. Superior Court 28 Cal.Rptr.3d 355, at 360, citing Kansas v. Hendricks, 521 U.S. 346, 360-61 (1997). The effect of applying the 2006 version of §2255 would be to triple the amount of the presumptive minimum damages to a minor who proves the elements of her §2255 claim. (Under Plaintiff's attempted approach — the presumptive minimum would potentially increase from 1.5 million to 4.5 million ($50,000 X 30; $150,000 X 30). The fact that a plaintiff proceeding under §2255 has to prove a violation of a criminal statute to recover damages thereunder, further supports that the imposition of a minimum amount, regardless of the amount of a victim's actual damages sustained, is meant and was enacted as additional punishment or penalty for violation of criminal sexual exploitation and abuse of minors. Accordingly, this Court is required to apply the statute in effect at the time of the alleged criminal acts. Not only is there no language in the 2006 statute stating that it is to apply retroactively, but further, such application of the 2006 version of 18 U.S.C. §2255 to acts that occurred prior to its effective date would have a detrimental and EFTA00175361
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 78 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/08/2009 Page 11 of 25 v. Epstein, et al. age 11 When a case implicates a federal statute enacted after the events in suit, the court's first task is to determine whether Congress has expressly prescribed the statute's proper reach. If Congress has done so, of course, there is no need to resort to judicial default rules. When, however, the statute contains no such express command, the court must determine whether the new statute would have retroactive effect, i.e., whether it would impair rights a party possessed when he acted, increase a party's liability for past conduct, or impose new duties with respect to transactions already completed. If the statute would operate retroactively, our traditional presumption teaches that it does not govern absent clear congressional intent favoring such a result. Here, there is no clear expression of intent regarding the 2006 Act's application to conduct occurring well before its enactment. Clearly, however, as discussed in part B herein, the presumptive minimum amount of damages of $150,000 was enacted as a punishment or penalty upon those who sexually exploit and abuse minors. See discussion of House Bill Reports and Congressional background above herein. The amount triples the previous amount for which a defendant might be found liable, regardless of the amount of actual damages sustained and proven. The new statute imposes a substantial increase in the monetary liability for past conduct. (As discussed below, Plaintiff also proposes that the minimum damage amount is to apply on a per violation basis; the absurdity of such position is further magnified when one considers that the presumptive damages amount was tripled to $150,000). As stated in Landoraf, "the extent of a party's liability, in the civil context as well as the criminal, is an important legal consequence that cannot be ignored." Courts have consistently refused to apply a statute which substantially increases a party's liability to conduct occurring before the statute's enactment. Landqraf, supra at 284-85. Even if the effective date of the Act. The Court determined that statutory text in question, §102, was subject to the presumption against statutory retroactivity. EFTA00175362
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 78 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/08/2009 Page 13 of 25 v. Epstein, et al. age 13 count complaint, including a single cause of action pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §2255 (Count I), along with 11 other counts based on state law ranging from negligence to intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress. The defendants moved to dismiss Count I because "plaintiffs have not pled sufficient facts to satisfy one of the predicate felonies mentioned in the statute." In describing the remedy created under 18 U.S.C. §2255(a), the Eastern District of Pennsylvania stated that the statute "authorizes a civil remedy for personal injuries suffered by a minor victim of certain federal felonies, ... ." Id, at 4. In other words, a minor, who Is a victim of any of the specified predicate criminal acts, may bring a §2255 claim "to recover the actual damages such minor sustains," regardless if a plaintiff proves one or multiple violations. As long as a plaintiff proves any violation of a specified criminal act and that he or she suffered personal injury, he or she is entitled to the presumptive minimum of damages imposed by the applicable statute - $50,000 in the instant case, even if the amount of actual damages proven is less. Again, the statute says nothing about the presumptive damages amount being for each violation or incident alleged. In her response, (pp. 3-9), Plaintiff at one point states that the express language allows for "a separate cause of action for each separate incident," but then goes on to rely on statutory interpretation principles applied when the language is vague or ambiguous. See p. 4 of response where Plaintiff states - "A review of the wording of 18 U.S.C. §2255 demonstrates no ambiguity." Plaintiff then references a portion of the legislative history and background on "Masha's Law." Plaintiff can cite to no case law EFTA00175363
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 78 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/08/2009 Page 15 of 25 v. Epstein, et al. 1,15 Plaintiff's reliance on In re Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Konop v. Hawaiin Airlines, Inc.I 355 B.R. 225 (D. Hi. 2006), is misplaced. Unlike the Stored Communications Act, 18 U.S.C. §2707(c), endnote', at issue in the Hawaiian Airlines case, the presumptive minimum is tied to the minor or person proving that she or he has suffered personal injury, along with actual damages sustained, as a result of any violation. To even bring a cause of action under §2255, a "minor/person" must prove a violation of enumerated criminal statute and "suffer personal iniury as a result of such violation." Only then "shall" such minor "recover the actual damages such minor sustains ... . Any minor/person as described in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have sustained damages of no less than $50,000/$150,000 in value." The statute at issue In Hawaiian Airlines does not address personal injury type damages. Significantly, the court found that the Stored Communications Act does not even require that the plaintiff prove actual damages or profits made by the violator to recover the statutory cap. Recovery under §2255, unlike the Stored Communications Act, is limited to a minor/person "who suffers personal injury" and mandates a recover of "actual damages," no matter how little is actually proven, of the statutory minimum. Hawaiian Airlines actually supports Defendant's position. The Court discussed and distinguished the Privacy Act, relying on Doe v. Chao, 540 U.S. 614, 124 S.Ct. 1204 (2004), which contained similar language to the Stored Communications Act, but concluded that $1,000 minimum damage award under the Privacy Act was not subject to multiplication on a per violation basis because it was limited to a plaintiff who proves actual damages.

Epstein, et at Page 17 applying the rule of lenity, the Court sided with the Defendants' interpretation of the Lacey Act which makes illegal the possession of snook caught in specified jurisdictions. The snook had been caught in Nicaraguan waters. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss asserting the statute did not encompass snook caught in foreign waters. The United States disagreed. Both sides presented reasonable interpretations regarding the reach of the statute. In dismissing the indictment, the Court determined that the rule of lenity required it to accept defendants' interpretation. Also requiring dismissal Plaintiff has failed to sufficiently allege the requisite §2266 predicate acts. (Plaintiff's Response, P. 10) Also requiring dismissal of Plaintiffs purported §2255 claim(s) is Plaintiff's failure to sufficiently allege any violation of a requisite predicate act as specifically identified in subsection (a) of the statute. Plaintiff in her response, p. 10, agrees that she has failed to sufficiently allege the predicate act(s) required by §2255. Defendant has no objection to Plaintiff attempting to amend, but Plaintiff should be required to plead a single cause of action under §2255 (2003), without seeking to multiply the presumptive minimum damages. IV. 18 U.S.C. 42255 does not allow for the recovery of punitive damages. Thus, Plaintiff's request for punitive damages under §2265 is required to be dismissed or stricken. (Plaintiffs Response, Part III, p. 11-18). Plaintiff's reliance on Tachiona v. Mugabe, 216 F.Supp.2d 262 (S.D.N.Y. 2002), is misplaced as the federal statute at issue, the Torture Victim Protection Act (TVPA), is clearly distinguishable. (Plaintiffs response, p. 11). See endnote 3 for relevant text.' Unlike §2255 which expressly provides that a successful plaintiff "shall recover the actual damages such minor/person sustains," the TVPA simply states that an individual EFTA00175365
Case 9:08-cv-80811-KAM Document 78 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/08/2009 Page 19 of 25 . v. Epstein, et al. .19 sustained" and imposes a minimum damages amount should plaintiff prove the elements of her claim. Plaintiffs reference, at p. 13 of her response, to the fact that the legislature eliminated a proposed three-fold damages provision in favor of the "actual damages" language also supports Defendant's position. Remember, this statute was enacted as part of the criminal statutory scheme to punish those who sexually abuse and exploit children. In addition to facing the payment of "actual damages" to a minor/person who suffered personal injury as a result of predicate act violation, such an individual also faces criminal prosecution and the additional accompanying penalties of spending many years in jail. Despite Plaintiff's attempted reliance on the legislative discussions and history prior to the passage of §2255, the ultimate decision is reflected in the language of the statute itself which allows for the recovery of "actual damages," and does not include punitive damages. Accordingly, Plaintiff's claim for punitive damages under 18 U.S.C. §2255 is required to be dismissed/stricken. VI. Count XXXI — "Sexual Battery" is required to be dismissed for failure to state a cause of action. In the alternative, Plaintiff should be required to more definitely state whether she is attempting to allege a claim under Florida common or statutory law, or some federal law, and further allege the required elements and factual allegations. (Response, Part IV, pp. 15-161 In her response, at p. 16, Plaintiff claims that "Count XXXI — Sexual Battery° is brought pursuant to Florida common law. Defendant stands on his original motion. If Plaintiff Is proceeding under Florida common law, then she should more definitely state such cause of action pleading the requisite elements of a common law sexual battery EFTA00175366
