JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A.‘S FOURTH SUPPLEMENTAL INITIAL DISCLOSURES¶
Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(aX1) and the Civil Case Management Plan, Dkt. 16, Defendant/Third-Party Plaintiff JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) makes the following fourth supplemental initial disclosures to Plaintiff Jane Doe 1 (“Doe” or “Plaintiff’) and Third-Party Defendant James Edward Staley (“Staley” or “Third-Party Defendant”).¶
The disclosures made herein are based upon information reasonably available to JPMorgan at the present stage of this litigation and the issues as currently defined by the complaint. JPMorgan reserves the right to supplement, revise, or otherwise amend the¶
information contained herein as discovery continues.¶
By making these disclosures, JPMorgan does not represent that it is identifying every document, tangible thing, or witness that may be relevant to the issues in this action, or on which JPMorgan may rely in support of its claims or defenses. Nor does JPMorgan waive its rights to object to production of any document or tangible thing disclosed on the basis of any valid objection (including but not limited to any privilege, the work-product doctrine, relevancy, hearsay, undue burden, or any other proper ground) or its rights to object to the use of any information disclosed for any purpose, in whole or in part, in any subsequent proceeding in this action or in any other action. JPMorgan also reserves the right to object on any and all proper grounds to any other discovery request or proceeding involving or relating to the subject matter of these disclosures consistent with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Local Rules for the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.¶
JPMorgan’s disclosures represent its good faith effort to identify information it reasonably believes is required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(l). The disclosures set forth below are made subject to the above objections and qualifications.¶

In making these disclosures, JPMorgan does not waive its right to object, pursuant to any applicable Federal Rule of Civil Procedure or Local Rule, to the deposition or trial testimony of any of the individuals listed below.¶
JPMorgan does not consent to or authorize communication by the Plaintiff with the individuals identified below. Each of the individuals identified below can be reached through counsel for JPMorgan.¶
Because discovery, investigation, and analysis of these matters is ongoing, JPMorgan reserves the right to supplement this information if additional information later becomes known and to designate and/or call further witnesses at trial.

U. CATEGORIES OF RELEVANT DOCUMENTS¶
At present, JPMorgan believes that the following documents, electronically stored information, and tangible things may be used to support JPMorgan’s claims or defenses, unless such use is solely for impeachment. This disclosure does not include documents solely within the Plaintiff’s or the Third-Party Defendant’s possession, custody, or control. This disclosure does not include expert materials that may be or have been developed, which will be disclosed pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(a)(2). This disclosure does not constitute an admission as to the existence, relevance, or admissibility of the identified materials or a waiver of any attorney- client privilege, work product protection, or other applicable privilege or immunity.¶
- I) Documents, communications, and electronically stored information relating to JPMorgan’s AML compliance program and other policies and practices.
-
- Documents, communications, and electronically stored information relating to Jeffrey Epstein’s accounts and accounts related to Jeffrey Epstein at JPMorgan.
-
- Documents, communications, and electronically stored information relating to James Staley’s employment, compensation, and duties at JPMorgan, including JPMorgan policies and codes of conduct.
-
- Documents, communications, and electronically stored information relating to James Staley’s communications with or about Jeffrey Epstein.
JPMorgan will make the foregoing documents available for inspection or copying at a time and place to be mutually agreed upon by the parties, subject to any applicable privacy or other restrictions and to the extent they are non-privileged and in JPMorgan’s possession, custody, and control. JPMorgan has produced Mr. Staley’s personnel file which includes Mr. Staley’s Code of Conduct affirmations and information regarding Mr. Staley’s compensation, and points Mr. Staley to the following documents in support of its claims:¶
JPM-SDNYLIT-00178143-JPM-SDNYLIT-00178494¶
JPM-SDNYLIT-00202227-JPM-SDNYLIT-00204753¶
JPM-SDNYLIT-00204821-WM-SDNYLIT-00204836¶
In addition to the above-described documents, JPMorgan expects that, during the course of discovery, experts will identify documents used to support their opinions pertaining to the issues in this case. Further, JPMorgan may rely upon publicly available documents and documents that have been identified in the initial disclosures of any other party or may be obtained through discovery or are otherwise produced by the Plaintiff and/or third parties.¶
Because discovery, investigation, and analysis of these matters are ongoing, JPMorgan expects to discover additional documents and/or tangible things upon which it may rely to support its claims or defenses, including documents from the Third-Party Defendant. JPMorgan therefore reserves the right to supplement this information accordingly.¶
Notwithstanding this identification of these categories of documents, JPMorgan reserves the right to object to any of the Plaintiff’s discovery requests on related topics to the extent such requests are overly broad, unduly burdensome, and/or call for documents beyond the scope of JPMorgan’s discovery obligations under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or the Local Rules, and/or any other applicable basis for objection.¶
