Here is the language from the Agreement. I will leave it to you to interpret whether disclosing part of the substance of the Agreement requires sealing or otherwise.¶
The parties anticipate that this agreement will not be made public record. If the United States receives a Freedom of In Act request or any compulsory process commanding the dis the agreement, it will provide notice to Epstein before ma disclosure.¶

Doesn’t the confidentiality provision obligate us to file it under seal?¶

Alex and Jeff,¶
Do you have any preference for filing under seal or a public filing? If we can protect the identities of the minor victims in a public filing, that is one less reason to file it under seal. The other considerations are the government’s confirmation that Epstein was under federal investigation, and the confidentiality provision in the deferral of prosecution agreement with Epstein.¶
It’s actually easier to file it electronically, and the general policy is that documents filed in court are public.¶
