CASE NO. ST-2020-CV-00155

Action for Indemnification

# ORDER
THIS MATTER is before the undersigned following a review of the file.

The parties appeared before the Judge for a status conference on March 9, 2022. According to the record of the clerk, the Judge directed the parties to submit briefs on or before August 1, 2022, on whether Virgin Islands public policy barred one or more of Plaintiff Ghislaine Maxwell's claims. The undersigned, having attended the hearing, recalls that Plaintiffs counsel had also requested a longer period of time to file the briefs in light of the then-pending criminal case in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. No date was given for another status conference, however.

In furtherance of the undersigned's duty to oversee the management of the complex litigation cases, and to hold case management and scheduling conferences in complex litigation cases, see generally In re. Auth. for the Creation & Appointment of Staff for Complex Lit. Div. of Super. Ct. of the V.I., Admin Order No. 2021-0012 (V.I. Aug. 12, 2021), available at 2021 V.I. Supreme LEXIS 4 / 2021 WL 3562551, it is hereby ORDERED that this matter is scheduled for a remote Status Conference on Friday, July 29, 2022, at 9:00 a.m., call-in details to be provided in advance by email.

Counsel shall come prepared to address the status of the case, including the motion to intervene filed by the Government of the Virgin Islands on July 13, 2020, as well as counsel's available dates when the undersigned could hear argument and issue a recommendation to the Judge on the motion to dismiss filed by the Defendants on May 1, 2020, once the supplemental briefing has been filed.

**DONE and SO ORDERED** this 1st day of July, 2022.
