In light of the entry of the guilty plea and sentence, the United States has agreed to defer federal prosecution in favor of this state plea and sentence, subject to certain conditions, including the following: 1. An independent Special Master was assigned the task of selecting an attorney representative to represent the victims in connection with civil litigation between the victims and Mt Epstein. The Special Master selected Robert Josefsberg, Esq. of the firm Podhurst Orseck, P.A., a highly-respected and experienced attorney. Ms. is not obligated to use Mr. Josefsberg as her civil attorney, but, as explained in eater detail below, Mr. Josefsberg's services will be provided at no cost to Ms. because Mr. Epstein is obligated to pay the costs and fees of the attorney-representative. Also, Mr. Epstein and his attorneys can only contact Ms. via Mr. Josefsberg, assuming that she would like Mr. Josefsberg to serve as her atone, 2. If Ms. elects to file suit against Mr. Epstein pursuant to Title 18, United States Code, Section 2255, Mr. Epstein will not contest the jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida over his person and/or the subject matter, and Mr. Epstein waives his right to contest liability and also waives his right to contest a damages to an amount as agreed to between Ms. and Mr. Epstein, so long as Ms. elects to proceed exclusively under 18 § 2255, and she waives any other claim for damages, whether pursuant to state, federal, or common law.
