Subject: Reply Brief in Jane Does . United States

Dear Roy and Jay:

I am attaching the reply brief filed by Brad Edwards with two pieces of correspondence that he attached to his pleading as exhibits. I had not seen Mr. Edwards’ October 15th letter before he filed it in connection with his Reply, so I do not know whether Mr. Lee has even received it yet. Mr. Edwards argues that Mr. Epstein has no interest in keeping the agreement confidential because he has not responded to Mr. Edwards’ motion to unseal. As you know, in our Response, the United States argued that this issue should be litigated in one of the suits filed by Mr. Edwards against Mr. Epstein. Mr. Edwards apparently believes it is to his benefit to argue these issues, instead, in his lawsuit against the United States.

And probably something much stronger than coffee.

I was in New York last weekend and saw "In the Heights." Have you seen it? It was absolutely fantastic. It may be slightly too racy for your daughter, but it was amazing.

Thanks Marie - welcome to the club. I often wish plaintiffs would sue someone else instead of my client. :)
