Ms Roberts said she was instructed to do the same whilethe Prince touched the older woman's breast as a "joke".http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/theprinceapaedophileandthesexslaveteen/newsstory/8cdeee961a486febf459eafe00a7f710?sv=68c529bb044b9fda5bf4f3… 1/2Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-7 Filed 03/17/17 Page 3 of 3The FBI case revealed sexual allegations by at least 20 girls, however, Epstein struck a deal withprosecutors and served 13 months' jail for soliciting child prostitution.3/16/2017 The Prince, a paedophile and the sex slave teen | Daily TelegraphMs Roberts stayed working as Epstein's "masseuse" until she met an Australian martial artsexpert named Robert.The pair married, causing an enraged Epstein to cut off the then 19yearold.Ms Roberts said she was coming to grips with her exploitation. Three years ago she wascontacted by the FBI who found photos and secret videos of her during their investigations.The case forced Ms Roberts to deal with her abuse and also reveal it to her husband."I couldn't bring myself to tell him much. No man wants to know his wife has been traded out,"she told The Mail.While Epstein's plea deal meant her identity was hidden, Ms Roberts said after seeing a pictureof the pair shopping she had to go public. "I am appalled. To me, it's saying 'We are above thelaw'. But Jeffrey is a monster." Both Epstein and Prince Andrew refused to comment.Originally published as Prince Andrew and the sex slave teenhttp://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/theprinceapaedophileandthesexslaveteen/newsstory/8cdeee961a486febf459eafe00a7f710?sv=68c529bb044b9fda5bf4f3… 2/2Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-8 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 1REDACTEDEXHIBIT HCase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-9 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 3EXHIBIT ICase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-9 Filed 03/17/17 Page 2 of 3Buckingham Palace issues second denial of underage sexclaims against Prince Andrewwww.foxnews.com /world/2015/01/04/buckingham-palace-issues-second-denial-underage-sex-claims-againstprince.htmlJune 6, 2012: In this file photo, Britain's Prince Andrew leaves King Edward VII hospital in London after visiting hisfather Prince Philip. (AP)Buckingham Palace officials have again denied claims made by a woman who alleged that she was forced to havesex while underage with Prince Andrew, Duke of York.The second denial comes after two Sunday papers in Britain published interviews with the woman in which sheclaimed that she was forced by American financier Jeffrey Epstein to have sex with Prince Andrew at least threetimes between 1999 and 2002. The woman alleges that the encounters took place in London, New York, and on aCaribbean island owned by Epstein.A Palace spokesman has said that the allegations are "false and without any foundation.""It is emphatically denied that the Duke of York had any form of sexual contact or relationship with (the woman)," thestatement continued. The denials are unusual because royal officials typically do not comment on allegationsagainst members of the royal family.The woman's claims are part of a lawsuit in a Florida court relating to how prosecutors handled a sexual abuse caseagainst American financier Jeffrey Epstein. The woman, identified in court papers only as "Jane Doe No. 3," is oneof two new accusers asking a West Palm Beach, Florida, judge to allow them to join the existing lawsuit againstEpstein. The royal is not named as a defendant in the case, and no criminal charges or formal allegations havebeen made against him.1/2Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-9 Filed 03/17/17 Page 3 of 3The women have objected to how U.S. prosecutors handled Epstein's case, and want authorities to reconsider aplea deal that allowed Epstein to avoid much more serious federal charges and potentially longer prison time.Epstein served 13 months of an 18-month sentence after pleading guilty to a single charge of soliciting prostitutionbefore being released in 2009.It was not the first time Prince Andrew has faced media scrutiny over his friendship with Epstein. In July 2011 theroyal stepped down from his role as a U.K. trade ambassador after he was photographed with Epstein in New York.Prince Andrew is the second son and third child of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. He isfifth in line to the British throne behind his older brother Prince Charles, nephew Prince William, grandnephewPrince George, and nephew Prince Harry.The Sunday Mirror reported that Prince Andrew was on a skiing holiday in Switzerland, where he had been stayingwith his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson and their daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.In a further bizarre twist to the story, prominent attorney Alan Dershowitz, who is also named in the courtdocuments, told the BBC that he is planning legal action against the woman."If she believes she has been hurt by me and Prince Andrew, she should be suing us for damages," the formerHarvard Law professor said. "I welcome that lawsuit. I welcome any opportunity that would put her under oath andrequire her to state under oath these false allegations."The Associated Press contributed to this report.2/2Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-10 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 4EXHIBIT JCase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-10 Filed 03/17/17 Page 2 of 4Prince Andrew denies sex abuse claims - CNN.comedition.cnn.com /2015/01/22/europe/prince-andrew-sex-abuse-allegations/Story highlightsPrince Andrew addresses crowd at Davos, backs palace statementCourt documents show attorneys sent a letter asking to interview him under oathBuckingham Palace has strenuously denied claim that he had sex with Virginia Roberts"Firstly, I think I must, want, for the record to refer to the events that have taken place in the last three weeks. And Ijust wish to reiterate and to reaffirm the statements which have already been made on my behalf by BuckinghamPalace," he said Thursday at the World Economic Forum.Earlier this month, Buckingham Palace issued a statement which said, "It is emphatically denied that the Duke ofYork [Andrew] had any form of sexual contact or relationship" with the woman. "Any claim to the contrary is false andwithout foundation."Andrew is a son of Queen Elizabeth II and a brother of Prince Charles, the next in line for the British throne.The prince is accused of having sex with the woman when she was 17, details of which are is a sworn affidavit inFlorida court dated January 19. The woman said that she and the Prince had sex "three times, including one orgy."The court documents showed that her lawyers had sent a letter to Buckingham Palace asking to interview the princeunder oath.In her sworn affidavit, the woman described Buckingham Palace's denial that sexual contact ever took placebetween the pair as "false and hurtful to me."Interview requestThe woman, identified by Buckingham Palace as Virginia Roberts, first named the prince in a civil motion filedDecember 30 in the U.S. District Court in southern Florida in which she claims she was forced to have sex withseveral men. She is referred to as Jane Doe No. 3 in the legal filings.In the letter the woman's lawyers sent to Buckingham Palace, attorneys Paul Cassell and Bradley Edwards asked tointerview Prince Andrew "under oath regarding interactions that you had with Jane Doe No. 3 beginning inapproximately early 2001. Jane Doe No. 3 was then 17 years old."The letter includes a picture of the woman and Andrew which was taken around that time, they say. The lawyers alsowant to discuss subsequent interactions with their client in New York City later that year, the letter says."The interview could be conducted at a time and place of your choosing, and with your cooperation, I believe theinterview could be completed in two hours or less," it says.New court pleadings involving the relationship between Jane Doe No. 3 and the prince are being prepared, the letteradds, but their filing will be delayed if Andrew accepts the interview request by January 19.The attorney for her legal team confirmed to CNN that Buckingham Palace had refused to accept the letter to PrinceAndrew and that it was returned to them.Buckingham Palace didn't respond Thursday when asked by CNN about the letter.1/3Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-10 Filed 03/17/17 Page 3 of 4But the woman's allegations have previously been firmly rejected by Buckingham Palace."It is emphatically denied that the Duke of York had any form of sexual contact or relationship with Virginia Roberts.Any claim to the contrary is false and without foundation," the palace said early this month.Statement: I just called him 'Andy'Prince Andrew is named in the court filing in Florida as one of a number of prominent people who allegedly hadsexual contact with teenage girls through self-made billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, who pleaded guilty some years ago inFlorida to a state charge of prostitution solicitation.CNN was unable to reach Martin Weinberg, Epstein's attorney, on Thursday.In her first sworn statement to the court, Jane Doe No. 3 gave more details of the alleged encounters."Epstein made me have sex with Prince Andrew several times," she said, according to the court document."I had sex with him three times, including one orgy. I knew he was a member of the British Royal Family, but I justcalled him 'Andy.' "One day when she was in London, she said, Epstein told her she would be meeting a "major prince."She continued: "Epstein told me 'to exceed' everything I had been taught. He emphasized that whatever PrinceAndrew wanted, I was to make sure he got."'Sexual interests in feet'When the prince arrived, she was introduced, she said, and "we kissed formally, cheek to cheek." The group wentfor dinner and to a nightclub where she was served alcohol before returning to the townhouse. The picture referredto in the letter, of the prince with Roberts, was taken there, she said.After the pair were left alone, she said, "We went to the bathroom and bedroom, which were just steps away fromwhere the picture was taken. We engaged in sexual activities there. Afterwards, Andy left quickly with his security."She said she had reported back to Epstein on the encounter next day, telling him, "It went great.""I told Epstein about Andy's sexual interests in feet. Epstein thought it was very funny. Epstein appeared to becollecting private information about Andy," she added.Roberts also gave details of two more alleged occasions when the pair had sex. One was in Epstein's New Yorkmansion in spring 2001, she said, when she was 17.The third and last occasion was at an orgy involving nine girls on Epstein's private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands,her statement said."I was around 18 at the time. Epstein, Andy, approximately eight other young girls, and I had sex together."The other girls, who appeared to be under 18, were "European looking and sounding" and didn't really speakEnglish, she said. She said she "felt disgusted" after the orgy.'Voluntarily tell the truth'Roberts rejected the palace's denial of the allegations and said she hoped Andrew would agree to be interviewedunder oath. "I did have sexual contact with him as I have described here -- under oath," she said.2/3Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-10 Filed 03/17/17 Page 4 of 4"Given what he knows and has seen, I was hoping that he would simply voluntarily tell the truth about everything."Roberts and another woman are seeking to join two other women who are arguing in federal court for the U.S.government to reexamine its case involving Epstein.The investment banker agreed to a state plea deal in 2007 and began serving an 18-month sentence in 2008,according to court documents. He pleaded guilty to solicitation of prostitution and procurement of a minor forprostitution.CNN's Max Foster contributed to this report.3/3Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-11 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 8EXHIBIT KCase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-11 Filed 03/17/17 Page 2 of 8

She’d have like nine or 10 girls she used to bring to him.'She never looked like she was being held captive,' he added. 'She and the other girls would walk out of theresmiling, with their little bathing suits on, like they had just come from the beach.'She’d have like $4,000. And then I’d take them all to the mall and they’d get their nails done.'He also said while making thousands of dollars from the relationship, she would buy fancy clothes and drive aroundin Epstein's Mercedes.Crystal Figueroa, whose brother dated Roberts in the early 2000s, told the Daily News Roberts would ask if sheknew anyone 'slutty' so they could be sent to Epstein.In 2001 she was sharing a Palm Beach apartment with Anthony Valladares. He told the Daily News that shebragged about going to the 'millionaire's house' for a day or two, before returning with cash.He did say that she tried to get out of the sex business, but was dragged back in.Last month it was revealed Roberts accused two male acquaintances she was raped, bringing her credibility into1/2question.Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-12 Filed 03/17/17 Page 3 of 3Roberts' lawyers says the latest allegations do not contend the fact she was used for underage sex.Attorney Sigrid McCawleysaid : 'To say that our client acquiesced in this abuse, or that the abuse was OK becauseshe was paid for it — leaves out the fact that this is why we have laws in the United States to protect minor childrenwho are groomed and sexually trafficked by adults.'Epstein served 13 months in a Florida prison after pleading guilty in 2008 to soliciting a minor for prostitution.Allegations: The 31-year-old is currently in the midst of a lawsuit claiming she was recruited to join Epstein's haremof underage women in 1999, naming Prince Andrew and attorney Alan Dershowitz as two of the men she was madeto 'service'The scandal resurfaced in January when Roberts named Prince Andrew in a lawsuit, accusing him of using her forunderage sex.According to court records connected with Roberts' current lawsuit, she maintains that she was recruited to joinEpstein's harem in 1999 by his friend, the socialite Ghislaine Maxwell.She says during the three years she worked for Epstein, she was made to entertain his friends and named PrinceAndrew and Dershowitz as two men she had sex with.Both men have denied having sex with Roberts, and Dershowitz is trying to get his name removed from the suit,claiming Roberts made the entire story up.Read more:www.nydailynews....Share or comment on this articleSorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.2/2Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-13 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 1REDACTEDEXHIBIT MCase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-14 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 1REDACTEDEXHIBIT NCase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-15 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 1REDACTEDEXHIBIT OCase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-16 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 1REDACTEDEXHIBIT PCase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-17 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 1REDACTEDEXHIBIT QCase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-18 Filed 03/17/17 Page 1 of 3EXHIBIT RCase 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-18 Filed 03/17/17 Page 2 of 3FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEApril 8, 2016Contact: Richard A.

As part of theiragreement, the parties have issued the attached Joint Statement.JOINT STATEMENT OF BRAD EDWARDS, PAUL CASSELL AND ALAN DERSHOWITZ REGARDINGSETTLEMENTBrad Edwards, Paul Cassell and Alan Dershowitz have today settled their pendingdefamation claims in which Edwards and Cassell sued Dershowitz and Dershowitzcounterclaimed against Edwards and Cassell. The case was about Dershowitz’s publicclaims that Edwards and Cassell, as the attorneys for Virginia Roberts, had failed to performthe necessary due diligence before filing the allegations of their client, not whether the actsof alleged misconduct in fact occurred. Edwards and Cassell vigorously denied thecontention that they had acted improperly and asserted that it defamed them. Dershowitzcountersued Edwards and Cassell, alleging they had falsely accused him of sexual contactwith Roberts—a claim he vigorously denied and that Dershowitz asserted defamed him.Edwards and Cassell maintain that they filed their client’s allegations in good faith andperformed the necessary due diligence to do so, and have produced documents detailingthose efforts. Dershowitz completely denies any such misconduct, while not disputingRoberts’s statements that the underlying alleged misconduct may have occurred withsomeone else. Dershowitz has produced travel and other records for the relevant timeswhich he relies on to establish that he could not have been present when the allegedGM_00523Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document 751-18 Filed 03/17/17 Page 3 of 3misconduct occurred. He has also produced other evidence that he relies upon to refutethe credibility of the allegations against him.The parties believe it is time to take advantage of the new information that has come tolight on both sides during the litigation and put these matters behind them.Given the events that have transpired since the filing of the documents in the federalcourt and in this action in which Dershowitz was accused of sexual misconduct, includingthe court order striking the allegations in the federal court filings, and the records andother documents produced by the parties, Edwards and Cassell acknowledge that it was amistake to have filed sexual misconduct accusations against Dershowitz; and the sexualmisconduct accusations made in all public filings (including all exhibits) are herebywithdrawn. Dershowitz also withdraws his accusations that Edwards and Cassell actedunethically.Neither Edwards, Cassell, nor Dershowitz have any intention of repeating the allegationsagainst one another.# # # #Editor’s note: Wiley Rein LLP represents Alan M.

Both motions are ripe for review. For the following reasons, the Court concludes that theyshould be denied.I. BackgroundThis is an action by two unnamed petitioners, Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2, seeking toprosecute a claim under the Crime Victims’ Rights Act (CVRA), 18 U.S.C. § 3771. (DE 1).Generally, they allege that the respondent Government violated their rights under the CVRA byfailing to consult with them before negotiating a non-prosecution agreement with Jeffrey Epstein,who subjected them to various sexual crimes while they were minors. (Id.). Petitioners initiatedthis action in July 2008. (Id.).Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document Document 324 Entered 751-19 on FLSD Filed Docket 03/17/17 04/07/2015 Page 3 of Page 11 2 of 10On December 30, 2014, two other unnamed victims, Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4, movedto join as petitioners in this action pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 21. (DE 280).Petitioners (Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2) support the Rule 21 Motion. (Id. at 11). Jane Doe 3 andJane Doe 4 argue that they “have suffered the same violations of their rights under the [CVRA]as the” Petitioners, and they “desire to join in this action to vindicate their rights as well.” (Id. at1). The Government vehemently opposes joinder under Rule 21. (DE 290). The Governmentargues that Rule 15 is the proper procedural device for adding parties to an action, not Rule 21.(Id. at 1).“[O]ut of an abundance of caution,” Petitioners filed a motion to amend their petitionunder Rule 15, conforming the petition to the evidence and adding Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 aspetitioners. (DE 311 at 2). The Government opposes the Rule 15 Motion as well. (DE 314).Among other things, the Government argues that amending the petition to include Jane Doe 3and Jane Doe 4 should be denied because of their undue delay in seeking to join the proceedings,and the undue prejudice that amendment will cause. (Id.).After considering the parties’ submissions and the proposed amended petition, the Courtfinds that justice does not require amendment in this instance and exercises its discretion to denythe amendment.II. Discussion“The decision whether to grant leave to amend a complaint is within the sole discretion ofthe district court.” Laurie v. Ala. Ct. Crim. Apps., 256 F.3d 1266, 1274 (11th Cir. 2001). “Thecourt should freely give leave when justice so requires.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a)(2). Justice doesnot require amendment in several instances, “includ[ing] undue delay, bad faith, dilatory motive2Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document Document 324 Entered 751-19 on FLSD Filed Docket 03/17/17 04/07/2015 Page 4 of Page 11 3 of 10on the part of the movant, . . . undue prejudice to the opposing party by virtue of allowance of theamendment, [and] futility of amendment.’” Laurie, 256 F.3d at 1274 (quoting Foman v. Davis,371 U.S. 178, 182 (1962)). In addition to considering the effect of amendment on the parties, thecourt must consider “the importance of the amendment on the proper determination of the meritsof a dispute.” 6 Wright & Miller, Fed. Prac. & Fed. P. § 1488, p. 814 (3d ed. 2010). Justice doesnot require amendment where the addition of parties with duplicative claims will not materiallyadvance the resolution of the litigation on the merits. See Herring v. Delta Air Lines, Inc., 894F.2d 1020, 1024 (9th Cir. 1989).A. Rule 21 MotionJane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4’s first attempt to join in this proceeding was brought underRule 21. (DE 280). “If parties seek to add a party under Rule 21, courts generally use thestandard of Rule 15, governing amendments to pleadings, to determine whether to allow theaddition.” 12 Wright & Miller, Fed. Prac. & Fed. P., p. 432 (3d ed. 2013); see also Galustian v.Peter, 591 F.3d 724, 729-30 (4th Cir. 2010) (collecting cases and noting that Rule 15(a) appliesto amendments seeking to add parties); Frank v. U.S. West, Inc., 3 F.3d 1357, 1365 (10th Cir.1993) (“A motion to add a party is governed by Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a) . . . .”).Rule 21, “Misjoinder and Non-joinder of Parties,” provides the court with a tool forcorrecting the “misjoinder” of parties that would otherwise result in dismissal. Fed. R. Civ. P.21. Insofar as Rule 21 “relates to the addition of parties, it is intended to permit the bringing inof a person, who through inadvertence, mistake or for some other reason, had not been made aparty and whose presence as a party is later found necessary or desirable.” United States v. Com.Bank of N. Am., 31 F.R.D. 133, 135 (S.D.N.Y. 1962) (internal quotation marks omitted).3Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document Document 324 Entered 751-19 on FLSD Filed Docket 03/17/17 04/07/2015 Page 5 of Page 11 4 of 10In their Rule 21 Motion, Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 do not claim that they were omittedfrom this proceeding due to any “inadvertence” or “mistake” by Petitioners; rather, they seek tojoin this proceeding as parties that could have been permissively joined in the original petitionunder Rule 20 (“Permissive Joinder of Parties”). As courts generally use the standards of Rule15 to evaluate such circumstances, the Court will consider the joinder issue as presented in the1Rule 15 Motion. The Court will consider the arguments presented in the Rule 21 Motion as ifthey are set forth in the Rule 15 Motion as well. Because the arguments are presented in the Rule15 Motion (and because the Court is denying the Rule 15 Motion on its merits, as discussedbelow), the Rule 21 Motion will be denied.The Court also concludes that portions of the Rule 21 Motion—and relatedfilings—should be stricken from the record. Pending for this Court’s consideration is a Motionfor Limited Intervention filed by Alan M. Dershowitz, who seeks to intervene to “strike theoutrageous and impertinent allegations made against him and [to] request[] a show cause order tothe attorneys that have made them.” (DE 282 at 1). The Court has considered Mr. Dershowitz’sarguments, but it finds that his intervention is unnecessary as Federal Rule of Civil Procedure12(f) empowers the Court “on its own” to “strike from a pleading an insufficient defense or anyredundant, immaterial, impertinent, or scandalous matter.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(f).Petitioners’ Rule 21 Motion consists of relatively little argumentation regarding why theCourt should permit them to join in this action: they argue that (1) they were sexually abused by1The Court notes that, regardless of which motion it considers, the same standardgoverns the addition of parties under Rule 21 and Rule 15. See Goston v. Potter, No. 08-cv-478FJS ATB, 2010 WL 4774238, at *5 (N.D.N.Y. 2010) (citing Bridgeport Music, Inc. v. UniversalMusic Grp., Inc., 248 F.R.D. 408, 412 (S.D.N.Y. 2008)).4Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document Document 324 Entered 751-19 on FLSD Filed Docket 03/17/17 04/07/2015 Page 6 of Page 11 5 of 10Jeffrey Epstein, and (2) the Government violated their CVRA rights by concealing the nonprosecutionagreement with them. (DE 280 at 3; see id. at 7-8). However, the bulk of the Rule21 Motion consists of copious factual details that Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 “would prove” “[i]fallowed to join this action.” (Id. at 3, 7). Specifically, Jane Doe 3 proffers that she could provethe circumstances under which a non-party introduced her to Mr. Epstein, and how Mr. Epsteinsexually trafficked her to several high-profile non-party individuals, “including numerousprominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-knownPrime Minister, and other world leaders.” (Id. at 3-6). She names several individuals, and she2offers details about the type of sex acts performed and where they took place. (See id. at 5).At this juncture in the proceedings, these lurid details are unnecessary to thedetermination of whether Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 should be permitted to join Petitioners’claim that the Government violated their rights under the CVRA. The factual details regardingwith whom and where the Jane Does engaged in sexual activities are immaterial and impertinentto this central claim (i.e., that they were known victims of Mr. Epstein and the Government owedthem CVRA duties), especially considering that these details involve non-parties who are notrelated to the respondent Government. These unnecessary details shall be stricken.The original Rule 21 Motion (DE 279) shall be stricken in its entirety, as it is whollysuperseded by the “corrected” version of the Rule 21 Motion (DE 280). From the corrected Rule21 Motion, the Court shall strike all factual details regarding Jane Doe 3 between the followingsentences: “The Government then concealed from Jane Doe #3 the existence of its NPA from2Jane Doe 4’s proffer is limited to sexual acts between Mr. Epstein and herself. (See DE280 at 7-8).5Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document Document 324 Entered 751-19 on FLSD Filed Docket 03/17/17 04/07/2015 Page 7 of Page 11 6 of 10Jane Doe #3, in violation of her rights under the CVRA” (id. at 3); and “The Government waswell aware of Jane Doe #3 when it was negotiating the NPA, as it listed her as a victim in theattachment to the NPA” (id. at 6). As none of Jane Doe 4’s factual details relate to non-parties,the Court finds it unnecessary to strike the portion of the Rule 21 Motion related to hercircumstances. Regarding the Declaration in support of Petitioners’ response to Mr.Dershowitz’s motion to intervene (DE 291-1), the Court shall strike paragraphs 4, 5, 7, 11, 13,15, 19 through 53, and 59, as they contain impertinent details regarding non-parties. Regardingthe Declaration of Jane Doe 3 in support of the Rule 21 Motion (DE 310-1), the Court shall strikeparagraphs 7 through 12, 16, 39, and 49, as they contain impertinent details regarding nonparties.Jane Doe 3 is free to reassert these factual details through proper evidentiary proof,should Petitioners demonstrate a good faith basis for believing that such details are pertinent to amatter presented for the Court’s consideration.As mentioned, Mr. Dershowitz moves to intervene “for the limited purposes of moving tostrike the outrageous and impertinent allegations made against him and requesting a show causeorder to the attorneys that have made them.” (DE 282 at 1). As the Court has taken it upon itselfto strike the impertinent factual details from the Rule 21 Motion and related filings, the Courtconcludes that Mr. Derschowitz’s intervention in this case is unnecessary. Accordingly, his3motion to intervene will be denied as moot. Regarding whether a show cause order should3This also moots Mr. Dershowitz’s Motion for Leave to File Supplemental Reply inSupport of Motion for Limited Intervention. (DE 317). Denying Mr. Dershowitz’s motion tointervene also renders moot Petitioners’ motion (DE 292) to file a sealed document supporting itsresponse to Mr. Dershowitz’s motion. It will accordingly be denied as moot, and DE 293 (thesealed response) will be stricken from the record.6Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document Document 324 Entered 751-19 on FLSD Filed Docket 03/17/17 04/07/2015 Page 8 of Page 11 7 of 10issue, the Court finds that its action of striking the lurid details from Petitioners’ submissions issanction enough. However, the Court cautions that all counsel are subject to Rule 11’s mandatethat all submissions be presented for a proper purpose and factual contentions have evidentiarysupport, Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(b)(1) and (3), and that the Court may, on its own, strike from anypleading “any redundant, immaterial, impertinent, or scandalous matter,” Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(f).B. Rule 15 MotionBetween their two motions (the Rule 21 Motion and Rule 15 Motion), Jane Doe 3 andJane Doe 4 assert that “they desire to join in this action to vindicate their rights [under theCVRA] as well.” (DE 280 at 1). Although Petitioners already seek the invalidation of Mr.Epstein’s non-prosecution agreement on behalf of all “other similarly-situated victims” (DE 189at 1; DE 311 at 2, 12, 15, 18-19), Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 argue that they should be fellowtravelers in this pursuit, lest they “be forced to file a separate suit raising their claims” resultingin “duplicative litigation” (DE 280 at 11). The Court finds that justice does not require addingnew parties this late in the proceedings who will raise claims that are admittedly “duplicative” ofthe claims already presented by Petitioners.The Does’ submissions demonstrate that it is entirely unnecessary for Jane Doe 3 andJane Doe 4 to proceed as parties in this action, rather than as fact witnesses available to offerrelevant, admissible, and non-cumulative testimony. (See, e.g., DE 280 at 2 (Jane Doe 3 andJane Doe 4 “are in many respects similarly situated to the current victims”), 9 (“The new victimswill establish at trial that the Government violated their CVRA rights in the same way as itviolated the rights of the other victims.”), 10 (Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 “will simply join inmotions that the current victims were going to file in any event.”), 11 (litigating Jane Doe 3 and7Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document Document 324 Entered 751-19 on FLSD Filed Docket 03/17/17 04/07/2015 Page 9 of Page 11 8 of 10Jane Doe 4’s claims would be “duplicative”); DE 298 at 1 n.1 (“As promised . . . Jane Doe No. 3and Jane Doe No. 4 do not seek to expand the number of pleadings filed in this case. If allowedto join this action, they would simply support the pleadings already being filed by Jane Doe No. 1and Jane Doe No. 2.”); DE 311 at 5 n.3 (“[A]ll four victims (represented by the same legalcounsel) intend to coordinate efforts and avoid duplicative pleadings.”), 15 (Jane Doe 3 and JaneDoe 4 “challenge the same secret agreement—i.e., the NPA that the Government executed withEpstein and then concealed from the victims. This is made clear by the proposed amendmentitself, in which all four victims simply allege the same general facts.”)). As the Does argue atlength in their Rule 15 Motion, Jane Doe 1’s original petition “specifically allege[s] that theGovernment was violating not only her rights but the rights of other similarly-situated victims.”(DE 311 at 2). The Court fails to see why the addition of “other similarly-situated victims” isnow necessary to “vindicate their rights as well.” (DE 280 at 1).Of course, Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 can participate in this litigated effort to vindicatethe rights of similarly situated victims—there is no requirement that the evidentiary proofsubmitted in this case come only from the named parties. Petitioners point out as much, notingthat, regardless of whether this Court grants the Rule 15 Motion, “they will call Jane Doe No. 3as a witness at any trial.” (DE 311 at 17 n.7). The necessary “participation” of Jane Doe 3 andJane Doe 4 in this case can be satisfied by offering their properly supported—and relevant,admissible, and non-cumulative—testimony as needed, whether through testimony at trial4(see DE 280 at 9) or affidavits submitted to support the relevancy of discovery requests (see310-1).4The non-party Jane Does clearly understand how to submit affidavits. (See DEs 291-1,8Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document Document 324 Entered 751-19 on FLSD Filed Docket 03/17/1704/07/2015 Page 10 of Page 11 9 of 10id. at 10). Petitioners do not contend that Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4’s “participation in thiscase” can only be achieved by listing them as parties.As it stands under the original petition, the merits of this case will be decided based on adetermination of whether the Government violated the rights of Jane Doe 1, Jane Doe 2, and all“other similarly situated victims” under the CVRA. Jane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 may offerrelevant, admissible, and non-cumulative evidence that advances that determination, but theirparticipation as listed parties is not necessary in that regard. See Herring, 894 F.2d at 1024(District court did not abuse its discretion by denying amendment where “addition of moreplaintiffs . . . would not have affected the issues underlying the grant of summary judgment.”); cf.Arthur v. Stern, 2008 WL 2620116, at *7 (S.D. Tex. 2008) (Under Rule 15, “courts have heldthat leave to amend to assert a claim already at issue in [another lawsuit] should not be granted ifthe same parties are involved, the same substantive claim is raised, and the same relief is5sought.”). And, as to Jane Doe 4 at least, adding her as a party raises unnecessary questions6about whether she is a proper party to this action.Petitioners also admit that amending the petition to conform to the evidence—byincluding references to the non-prosecution agreement itself—is “unnecessary” as the “existingpetition is broad enough to cover the developing evidence in this case.” (DE 311). The Court5The Court expresses no opinion at this time whether any of the attestations made byJane Doe 3 and Jane Doe 4 in support of their motion will be relevant, admissible, and noncumulative.6The Government contends that Jane Doe 4 is not a true “victim” in this case becauseshe was not known at the time the Government negotiated the non-prosecution agreement, andaccordingly she was not entitled to notification rights under the CVRA. (See DE 290 at 10).Any “duplicative” litigation filed by Jane Doe 4 would necessarily raise the issue of whether shehas standing under the CVRA under these circumstances.9Case 9:08-cv-80736-KAM Case 1:15-cv-07433-RWS Document Document 324 Entered 751-19 on FLSD Filed Docket 03/17/17 04/07/2015 Page 11 of Page 11 10 of 10agrees, and it concludes that justice does not require amending the petition this late in theproceedings.III.
