part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claim occurred in this District.
Factual Allegations
7.
At all relevant times, Defendant Jeffrey Epstein ("Epstein") was an adult male, 52
years old. Epstein is a financier and money manager with a secret clientele limited exclusively to
billionaires. He is himself a man of tremendous wealth, power and influence. He maintains his
principal home in New York and also owns residences in New Mexico, St. Thomas and Palm Beach,
FL. The allegations herein concern Epstein's conduct while at his lavish estate in Palm Beach.
8.
Upon information and belief, Epstein has a sexual preference and obsession for
underage minor girls. He engaged in a plan and scheme in which he gained access to primarily
economically disadvantaged minor girls in his home, sexually assaulted these girls, and then gave
them money. In or about 2004-2005, Jane Doe, then approximately 16 years old, fell into Epstein's
trap and became one of his victims.
9.
Upon information and belief, Jeffrey Epstein carried out his scheme and assaulted
girls in Florida, New York and on his private island, known as Little St. James, in St. Thomas.
10.
Epstein's scheme involved the use of young girls to recruit underage girls. (Upon
information and belief, the young girl who brought Jane Doe to Epstein was herself a minor victim of
Epstein, and will therefore not be named in this Complaint). Under Epstein's plan, underage girls
were recruited ostensibly to give a wealthy man a massage for monetary compensation in his Palm
Beach mansion. The recruiter would be contacted when Epstein was planning to be at his Palm
Beach residence or soon after he had arrived there. Epstein or someone on his behalf would direct the
recruiter to bring one or more underage girls to the residence. The recruiter, upon information and
belief, generally sought out economically disadvantaged underage girls from western Palm Beach

This was an important element of Epstein's plan. 11. Epstein's plan and scheme reflected a particular pattern and method. Upon arrival at Epstein's mansion, the underage victim would be introduced to Sarah Kellen, Epstein's assistant, who gathered the girl's personal information, including her name and telephone number. Ms. Kellen would then bring the girl up a flight of stairs to a bedroom that contained a massage table in addition to other furnishings. There were photographs of nude women lining the stairway hall and in the bedroom. The girl would then find herself alone in the room with Epstein, who would be wearing only a towel. He would then remove his towel and lie naked on the massage table, and direct the girl to remove her clothes. Epstein would then perform one or more lewd, lascivious and sexual acts, including masturbation and touching the girl's vagina. 12. Consistent with the foregoing plan and scheme, Jane Doe was recruited to give Epstein a massage for monetary compensation. Jane was brought to Epstein's mansion in Palm Beach. Once at the mansion, Jane was introduced to Sarah Kellen, who led her up the flight of stairs to the room with the massage table. In this room, Epstein told Jane to take off her clothes and give him a massage. Jane kept her panties and bra on and complied with Epstein's instructions. Epstein wore only a towel around his waste. After a short period of time, Epstein removed the towel and rolled over exposing his penis. Epstein began to masturbate and he sexually assaulted Jane. 13. After Epstein had completed the assault, Jane was then able to get dressed, leave the room and go back down the stairs. Jane was paid $200 by Epstein. The young girl who recruited Jane was paid $100 by Epstein for bringing Jane to him. HERMAN & MERMELSTEIN, P. A. www.hermanlaw.com - 3 - EFTA00222672

Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 12 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/20/2008 Page 1 of 6 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA CASE NO.: 08-CV-80119-MARRA-JOHNSON JANE DOE NO. 2, Plaintiff, vs. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, Defendant. DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR STAY Defendant Jeffrey Epstein respectfully moves for a mandatory stay of this action under Title 18, United States Code, Section 3509(k). As discussed below, this action is subject to a mandatory stay based on the existence of two pending parallel criminal actions. Introduction This civil action is a private counterpart to two ongoing criminal actions, one in Palm Beach state court, the other in Miami federal court. Both cases purport to arise from the same occurrence: the alleged sexual assault of a minor, Jane Doe No. 2. A federal statute directly on point provides that when an alleged sexual assault involving a child victim results in a "criminal proceeding," a commonly EFTA00222676
Page 8 / 84
Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 12 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/20/2008 Page 2 of 6 derived civil suit "shall be stayed until the end of all phases of the criminal action." 18 U.S.C. § 3509(k) (emphasis added).' A stay of this case is required until there is no longer a pending criminal action derived from the same underlying allegations. See 18 U.S.C. § 3509(k). Discussion The parallel state criminal action pending in Palm Beach Circuit Court is still in the discovery phase. State of Florida v. Jeffi-ey Epstein, Case No. 2006 CF 09454 AXX (Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, Palm Beach County). Meanwhile, there is also a parallel federal criminal grand jury action pending in the Southern District of Florida. In re Grand Jury, No. FGJ 07-103(WPB) (S.D. Fla.) Both cases arise out of the same occurrence and allege that the minor plaintiff is a victim. The language of section 3509(k) of title 18, United States Code, is clear: a parallel "civil action shall be stayed until the end of all phases of the criminal The full text of the mandatory-stay provision reads: If, at any time that a cause of action for recovery of compensation for damage or injury to the person of a child exists, a criminal action is pending which arises out of the same occurrence and in which the child is the victim, the civil action shall be stayed until the end of all phases of the criminal action and any mention of the civil action during the criminal proceeding is prohibited. As used in this subsection, a criminal action is pending until its final adjudication in the trial court. 18 U.S.C. § 3509(k). 2 EFTA00222677

action." 18 U.S.C. § 3509(k) (emphasis added). When it comes to statutory
construction, the mandatory nature of the word "shall" is well-settled. See, e.g.,
Lopez v. Davis, 531 U.S. 230, 241 (2001) (noting Congress' use of a mandatory
`shall' to impose discretionless obligations") (emphasis added); Lexecon Inc. v.
Milberg Weiss Bershad Hynes & Lerach, 523 U.S. 26, 35 (1998) (explaining that
"the mandatory `shall' . . . normally creates an obligation impervious to judicial
discretion") (emphasis added). Cf. Miller v. French, 530 U.S. 327, 350 (2000)
("Through the PLRA [Prison Litigation Reform Act], Congress clearly intended to
make operation of the automatic stay mandatory, precluding courts from
exercising their equitable powers to enjoin the stay. And we conclude that this
provision does not violate separation of powers principles.") (emphasis added).
One district court within the Eleventh Circuit, facing the identical issue with
a pending state prosecution, recently construed "the plain language of § 3509(k)"
as "requirfing] a stay in a case . . . where . . . a parallel criminal action [is]
pending." Doe v. Francis, No. 5:03 CV 260 MCR/WCS, 2005 WL 950623, at *2
(N.D. Fla. Apr. 20, 2005) (Francis I.1) (emphasis added). Accord Doe v. Francis,
No. 5:03 CV 260 MCR/WCS, 2005 WL 517847, at *1-2 (N.D. Fla. Feb. 10, 2005)
(Francis I) (staying federal civil action in favor of "a criminal case currently
pending in state court in Bay County, Florida, arising from the same facts and
involving the same parties as the Instant action," noting that "the language of 18

Page 10 / 84
Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 12 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/20/2008 Page 4 of 6 U.S.C. § 3509(k) is clear that a stay is required in a case such as this where a parallel criminal action is pending which arises from the same occurrence involving minor victims") (emphasis added). There is no contrary opinion from any court. In determining that the federal stay provision is mandatory, the Francis II court expressed that there was apparently no case law supporting, or even "discussing the [avoidance] of a stay [under the command of] § 3509(k)." Francis H, 2005 WL 950623, at *2. Deferring to the statute as written, the Francis H court rejected the plaintiffs' argument that some of the alleged victims had already reached their majority. See id. The court similarly rejected the plaintiffs' argument that it would be in the victims' best interests to avoid a stay so as to counteract the victims' "ongoing and increasing mental harm due to the `frustrating delay in both the criminal case and [the civil] case.'" Id. The Francis II court, in adhering to the plain language of the statute, also adhered to the "well established priority of criminal proceedings over civil proceedings." Cf. United States v. Hanhardt, 156 F. Supp. 2d 988, 1000 (N.D. I11. 2001) (citing Fed. R. Crim. P. 50(a)). Conclusion Because this civil action arises from the same allegations as two pending criminal actions, § 3509(k) mandates a stay of this civil action. • 4 EFTA00222679

Case 9:08-cv-80119-KAM Document 21 Entered on FLSD Docket 07:1672008 Page 1 of 3 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA NO. 08-80119-CIV-MARRA/JOHNSON JANE DOE NO. 2, Plaintiff, 1. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, Defendant. ORDER DENYING MOTION TO SEAL THIS CAUSE comes before the Court on Defendant Jeffrey Epstein's Motion to File Ex Pane and Under Seal, filed July 10, 2008. Defendant seeks to file a Notice of Continued Pendency of Federal Criminal Action under seal.' The Court has carefully considered the motion and the record and is otherwise fully advised in the premises. As stated in the Local Rules for the Southern District of Florida, "proceedings in the United States District Court are public and Court filings are matters of public record." S.D. Fla. L.R. 5.4(A). It is well settled that the media and the public in general possess a common-law right to inspect and copy judicial records. See Nixon I Warner Communications, Inc., 435 U.S. 589, 597 (1978). "The right to inspect and copy records is not absolute, however. As with other forms of access, it may interfere with the administration of justice and hence may have to be curtailed." Graddick, 696 F.2d 796, 803 (11th Cir.1983). This right of access creates 'All documents filed conventionally shall henceforth be filed directly with the Office of the Clerk in West Palm Beach, Florida. The parties shall not file documents conventionally in any other division of the Southern District of Florida. 1 EFTA00222689
