SDNY COURTHOUSE,
August 12 –
Prince Andrew was sued on
August 9 by Virginia Giuffre,
under the New York State Child
Victims Act, in the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
(where Inner City Press found
it that day in the
docket).
Now SDNY Judge
Lewis A. Kaplan, to whom the
case has been assigned, as
scheduled a September 13
proceeding, regardless: "ORDER
FOR INITIAL PRETRIAL
CONFERENCE: Initial Conference
set for 9/13/2021 at 04:00 PM
before Judge Lewis A. Kaplan
via teleconference. Counsel
receiving this order shall
promptly mail and email copies
hereof to all other counsel of
record or, in the case of any
party for whom no appearance
has been made, to such party
and to all counsel, foreign or
domestic, known or believed to
be acting on behalf of such
party. Counsel for both
parties are directed to confer
regarding an agreed scheduling
order. If counsel are able to
agree on a schedule and the
agreed schedule calls for
filing of the pretrial order
not more than six (6) months
from the date of this order,
counsel shall sign and file
within twenty-one (21) days
from the date hereof a consent
order in the form annexed for
consideration by the Court.
Regardless of whether such a
consent order is filed within
the time provided, a
teleconference will be held on
September 13, 2021 at 4 p.m."
Guiffre,
represented by Boies Schiller,
states that Giuffre "was
regularly abused by Epstein
and was lent out by Epstein to
other powerful men for sexual
purposes. One such powerful
man to whom Plaintiff was lend
out for sexual purposes was
the Defendant, Prince Andrew,
the Duke of York."
The
Complaint contains a map of
flights from London to Tangier
to Teterboro to Santa Fe. It
cited Ghislaine Maxwell, who
after press conferences in the
United Nations is in the MDC
awaiting trial in the SDNY.
It has the famous
photo, with Prince Andrew with
his arm around Giuffe's waist
and Maxwell in the
background. The
first cause of action is
Battery.
Then, Intentional
Infliction of Emotional
Distress, and damages. Inner
City Press will follow and
report on the case.
The case is
Giuffre v. Prince Andrew,
21-cv-6702 (Kaplan).
