SDNY COURTHOUSE,
May 3 –
J.P. Morgan
Chase and
Deutsche Bank
were sued for
their enabling
of Jeffrey
Epstein, in
lawsuits filed
on
Thanksgiving
in the U.S.
District Court
for the
Southern
District of
New York,
where Inner
City Press
found them in
the docket.
The separate
lawsuits
allege that
"without
exorbitantly
large amounts
of cash,
Epstein's
operations
could not run,
as newly
recruited
victims were
each paid
hundreds of
dollars in
cash
immediately
after Epstein
sexually
abused them,
as hush
money."
The
JPM Chase
complaint is
on Patreon, here.
On March
20, 2023 Judge
Jed S.
Rakoff in a
bottom line
order
dismissed some
but not
all claims,
in the Epstein-related
cases against
JPMC and Deutsche
Bank.
Inner
City Press put
the order on
its
DocumentCloud
here.
On
April 28, a
motion seeking
class certification
of
Epstein-related
claims against
JPMC was
filed; filing

On May 3,
Judge Rakoff
docketed:
"Minute Entry
for
proceedings
held before
Judge Jed S.
Rakoff:
Telephone
Conference
held on

or recording.
