UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE¶
Dear Judge Schofield:¶
We represent Defendants Darren'. Indyke and Richard D. Kahn, Co-Executors of the Estate of Jeffrey E. Epstein (together, the "Co-Executors'), in the above-referenced action. We write to further supplement our submission dated March 26, 2020 (ECF Doc. 44) with the enclosed copy of the Opinion & Order entered today by The Hon. Paul A. Engelmayer in another personal injury action against the Co-Executors (Jane Doe 15 v. Darren.. Indyke and Richard D. Kahn, as executors of the Estate of Jeffrey E. Epstein, 19-civ-10653 (PAE) (DCF)). In His Honor's Opinion & Order Judge Engelmayer grants the Co-Executors' motion to dismiss the plaintiffs punitive damages claim against them as a matter of law on grounds applicable to Plaintiffs claim for punitive damages in this action.¶
Respectfully submitted,¶
