Filing # 31897743 E-Filed 09/10/2015 12:44:35 PM IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE SEVENTEENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT IN AND FOR BROWARD COUNTY, FLORIDA CASE NO.: CACE 15-000072 BRADLEY J. EDWARDS and PAUL G. CASSELL, Plaintiffs/Counterclaim Defendants, vs. ALAN M. DERSHOWITZ, Defendant/Counterclaim Plaintiff. DEFENDANT/COUNTERCLAIM PLAINTIFF ALAN M. DERSHOWITZ'S MOTION FOR FINDING OF WAIVER BASED ON PLAINTIFFS' FAILURE TO PROVIDE A PRIVILEGE LOG OR, IN THE ALTERNATIVE, TO COMPEL PLAINTIFFS TO PROVIDE AN ITEMIZED PRIVILEGE LOG Defendant/Counterclaim Plaintiff ALAN M. DERSHOWITZ ("Dershowitz") respectfully moves this Court for entry of an Order ruling that Plaintiffs BRADLEY J. EDWARDS ("Edwards") and PAUL G. CASSELL ("Cassell") (together, "Plaintiffs") have waived any privilege or protection that may have otherwise applied to documents and information that are responsive to Dershowitz's discovery requests. In the alternative, Dershowitz requests that the Court enter an Order compelling Plaintiffs to provide an itemized privilege log by a date certain. On February 11, 2015, Dershowitz served his First Sets of Document Requests and First Sets of Interrogatories on each of the Plaintiffs, individually (collectively, the "Initial Discovery Requests"). On March 13, 2015, Plaintiffs served their responses to the Initial Discovery Requests, which asserted that many of the documents and much of the information sought by Dershowitz are protected by the attorney-client privilege and/or the work product doctrine. See EFTA00608894 Exhibits A & B. Plaintiffs did not, however, produce a single document to Dershowitz, nor did they provide a privilege log to substantiate their assertions of privilege. After months of delay, Plaintiffs finally produced some documents to Dershowitz in late July and early August 2015. On August 25, 2015, Plaintiffs served Supplemental Responses to Dershowitz's First Sets of Document Requests that continued to assert the attorney-client privilege and the work product doctrine as a basis for withholding responsive documents. See Exhibit C. To date, however, Plaintiffs still have not provided a privilege log in connection with the Initial Discovery Requests, despite numerous requests by Dershowitz and despite Plaintiffs' representation that they would provide such a privilege log no later than September 4, 2015. On September 9, 2015, Plaintiffs served responses to Dershowitz's Second Set of Document Requests to Edwards and to Dershowitz's Third Set of Document Requests to Cassell (the "Additional Discovery Requests"). See Exhibits D & E. In response to Request No. 2 in the Additional Discovery Requests, both Plaintiffs objected solely on the basis of attorney-client privilege, see id, but once again failed to provide any privilege log listing the specific documents that were withheld as privileged. 1. Plaintiffs have waived their right to assert any privileges or protections by failing to provide a privilege log in a timely manner or by their own self-imposed deadline. Without a privilege log, it is impossible to assess the basis of Plaintiffs' assertions of privilege or to determine the validity of those assertions. See, e.g., Gen. Motors Corp. v. McGee, 837 So. 2d 1010, 1033 (Fla. 4th DCA 2002) ("One purpose of the privilege log is to identify materials which might be subject to a privilege or work product protection so that a court can rule on the applicability of the privilege or protection prior to trial.") (internal quotation marks omitted) , as 2 EFTA00608895 modified on clarification (Mar. 5, 2003). It is also impossible to determine whether responsive documents exist and are being withheld, or whether there simply are no responsive documents. Moreover, the failure to provide a privilege log is, in and of itself, a sufficient basis to conclude that Plaintiffs have waived any privilege or protection that may have attached to documents and information responsive to the Initial Discovery Requests and the Additional Discovery Requests. See, e.g., Kaye Schuler LLP v. Zalis, 878 So. 2d 447, 449 (Fla. 3d DCA 2004) (a waiver can be found based upon a party's failure to file a privilege log after objecting to discovery requests on the basis of privilege); TIC Ins. Corp. of Am. v. Johnson, 799 So. 2d 339, 34042 (Fla. 4th DCA 2001) (same).1 2. Plaintiffs must, at a minimum, be compelled to provide a comprehensive, itemized privilege log by a date certain. Plaintiffs have indicated to Dershowitz that — if they provide a privilege log at all — they do not intend to log individual documents; rather, they plan to indicate broadly which "categories" of documents they have withheld.'- This approach is inconsistent with Florida law. See, e.g., Johnson, 799 So. 2d at 341 (interpreting what is now Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.280(b)(6) as requiring a privilege log that specifies (1) the type of document; (2) the document's subject matter; (3) the date of the document; and (4) other information As set forth in Dershowitz's Motion to Compel Plaintiffs' Production of Documents & Complete Responses to Interrogatories, filed on September 8, 2015, Plaintiffs' actions in filing this defamation lawsuit have also resulted in an at-issue waiver of any privilege or protection that may have otherwise attached to responsive information and documents. Plaintiffs' failure to file a privilege log presents a separate and independently sufficient basis for a finding of waiver. 2 As noted above, Plaintiffs initially represented to Dershowitz that they would provide a privilege log in connection with the Original Discovery Responses no later than September 4, 2015. Most recently, however, Plaintiffs have indicated that they will not provide any sort of privilege log for certain documents located at their counsel's office — not even one that lists broad categories of documents that are being withheld — unless and until the Court orders them to do so. 3 EFTA00608896 needed to identify the document for a subpoena duces tecum, including, where appropriate, the author of the document, the recipient of the document, and, if not apparent, the relationship between the author and recipient). Thus, in the alternative to a finding of waiver, Plaintiffs must be compelled to produce, by a date certain, an itemized privilege log that lists each responsive document that was created before December 30, 2014,3 but has been withheld on the basis of the attorney-client privilege or work product protection. WHEREFORE, Defendant / Counterclaim Plaintiff ALAN M. DERSHOWITZ, by and through his undersigned counsel, respectfully requests this Honorable Court to enter an Order (a) ruling that, due to their continued failure to provide a privilege log, Plaintiffs have waived any privilege or protection that may have otherwise applied to documents and information that are responsive to the Initial Discovery Requests and the Additional Discovery Requests; or, in the alternative, (b) compels Plaintiffs to provide an itemized privilege log that comports with Florida law by a date certain. CERTIFICATE OF CONFERRAL Pursuant to the Court's Rules and Florida Rules of Civil Procedure, the undersigned counsel certifies that he has made a good faith attempt to resolve this matter with opposing counsel prior to filing this motion. 3 Dershowitz agrees that there is no reason to log individual documents that were created on or after December 30, 2014, which is the date on which the parties to this defamation lawsuit reasonably anticipated litigation. 4 EFTA00608897 Respectfully submitted, /s/ Thomas E.

State verbatim or as close as possible Each statement by Dershowitz that You assert defamed You. ANSWER: Until we have transcripts of all of the statements Mr. Dershowitz has publicly made, we are unable to identify each defamatory statement. In addition, it appears that Mr. Dershowitz continues to make defamatory statements at every opportunity he has to attract the attention of an audience. However, the general defamatory themes can be illustrated based on the currently available information, by the following examples which describe the specific statements made along with the program or source publishing the statements and the approximate date on which the statement was made or published by the media: Politico.com — December 31, 2014 Dershowitz called the allegations against him included in public filings by the Plaintiffs "totally made up and totally fabricated from beginning to end." Additionally: "I'm planning to file disbarment charges against the two lawyers who signed this petition without even checking the manifests of airplanes or travel itineraries, et cetera." htm://www.rolitico.com/bloas/under-the-radar/2014/12/court-filing-levels-sex-claims-at-alan- dershowitz-200495.html Wall Street Journal Law Blog — January 2, 2015: "It's a completely, totally fabricated, made-up story," Mr. Dershowitz told Law Blog in an interview Friday. "They made up this story out of whole cloth. I'm an innocent victim of an extortion conspiracy." htto://bloas.wsj.com/law/2015/01 /02/dershowitz-im-an-innocent-victim-of-an-extortion- conspiracy/ New York Times — January 3, 2015: On Saturday, Mr. Dershowitz said he "categorically and unequivocally" denied all of the allegations. He said he would file disbarment proceedings against the lawyers who filed the motion, Bradley J. Edwards, a lawyer in Florida, and Paul G. Cassell, a former federal judge and a law professor at the University of Utah. "They are lying deliberately, and I will not stop until they're disbarred," Mr. Dershowitz said in a phone interview. 3 EFTA00608903 http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/04/us/prince-andrew-and-alan-dershowitz-are-named-inuit- allegina-sex-with-minor.html? El Nuevo Herald (The Miami Herald's afternoon paper, published in Spanish) — Jan. 2, 2015: Dershowitz neg6 las acusaciones, y las describi6 como pane de una conspiracion para extorsionarlo. Califice la demanda de "el documento judicial mas sordid° que he visto." [Translation: Dershowitz denied the allegations, and described them as part of a conspiracy to extort him. He described the suit as "the most sordid judicial document I have ever seeni "Ellos [Cassell y Edwards] manipularon a una muchacha joven y sugestionable que estaba interesada en el dinero", dijo Dershowitz. [Translation: "They [Cassell and Edwards] manipulated a very young and impressionable woman who was interested in the money", declared Dershowitz.] Dershowitz dijo que el se propone presentar acusaciones en contra de Edwards y Cassell. "Este es una ofensa que puede costarles su licencia de abogados, y ellos la van a perder", dijo Dershowitz. "Ellos van a arrepentirse del dia en que hicieron esta acusacion falsa en mi contra." [Translation: Dershowitz said that he intended to bring accusations against Edwards and Cassell. "This is a type of offense which could cost them their practicing lawyer licenses, and they are going to lose", stated Dershowitz. "They (Cassell and Edwards) are going to regret the day [i.e., rue the dayl they made a false accusation against me."] http://www.elnuevoherald.com/noticias/sur-de-la-florida/article5398827.html Miami Herald —January 3, 2015: Dershowitz denied the claims [that he was a witness to the abuse of minors by Epstein and others], describing them as part of an extortion plot He called the filing "the sleaziest legal document I have ever seen." "They [Edwards and Cassell] manipulated a young, suggestible woman who was interested in money," Dershowitz said. Dershowitz said he intends to file complaints against Edwards and Cassell. "This is a disbarrable offense, and they will be disbarred," Dershowitz said. "They will rue the day they ever made this false charge against me." htto://www.miamiherald.cominews/localkornmunitv/broward/article5342709.html BBC — January 3, 2015: "Well, first of all they were made in court papers that they don't even ask for a hearing to try to prove them. They put them in court papers in order to immunize themselves from any 4 EFTA00608904 consequences from a defamation suit. The story is totally made up, completely out of whole cloth. "And I will prove beyond any doubt not only that the story is totally false, but it was knowingly false: that the lawyers and the client conspired together to create a false story." "Q: They have said that they have tried to get testimony from you but that you have avoided their deposition requests. A: Totally false. That's totally false. I have never been asked to be deposed." "I will not rest or stop until the world understands not only that I had nothing to do with any of this, but that she deliberately, with the connivance of her lawyer, lawyers, made up this story willfully and knowingly." http://www.bbc.co.uk/proarammes/p02g7abc Boston Globe — January 4, 2015: "They [Edwards and Cassell] are lying deliberately, and I will not stop until they're disbarred," http://www.bostonalobe.com/metro/20I 5/01 /04/suit-accuses-pri nce-andrew-and-alan- dershowitz-sex-with-minor/WhJMnZWMEJP3Ut8d7aexUstory.html (quoting phone interview with Dershowitz) Vice News — January 5, 2015: "I never met this woman, I never touched her, I wasn't ever massaged by her — there was no contact, no contact whatsoever," Dershowitz told CNN. "And I will prove it conclusively, and then I will bring disciplinary charges and prove that these lawyers knew that this was false, could easily have checked, and didn't. And the end result will be that these lawyers will be disbarred." https://news.vice.com/article/buckinaham-palace-emphaticallv-denies-arince-andrew-had-sex- with-a-teenage-sex-slave Huffington Post — January 5, 2015: On Friday, in the voicemail message for Goldman [of the Website Politico], Dershowitz said that the charges against him were "totally made up." Goldman forwarded the message to The Huffington Post. Dershowitz called the woman a "serial liar" who he contended has a history of 5 EFTA00608905 making up false charges against public figures, including former President Bill Clinton. "It's just a completely categorical lie made up to gain money for her, and I hope no one takes it in any way seriously," he added. Dershowitz . . told Politico earlier this week that he was planning legal action against the attorneys who signed off on the filing. "I'm planning to file disbarment charges against the two lawyers who signed this petition without even checking the manifests of airplanes or travel itineraries, et cetera," he said to Politico. http://www.huffingtonpost.cotn/2015/01/03/alan-dershowitz-sexual-assault n 6410380.honl A copy of the voicemail left by Dershowitz can be found at: htta://big.assets.huffingtontost.corn/Dershowitz.AMR The voicemail includes the statement from Dershowitz: "I don't know what happened with any of the public figures [mentioned by Jane Doe No. 3], but I know that in my case I did have any contact with her. I would have been physically impossible for me to. It's just a completely, categorical lie made up out of whole cloth in order to gain money for her." CNN Live (with Hala Gorani) — January 5, 2015: "And if these lawyers, these sleazy unprofessional, unethical lawyers, Paul Cassell and Brad Edwards, if they had just done an hours' worth of research and work, they would have seen she is lying through her teeth. That's why I'm going after them, their bar cards. I'm seeking disciplinary action against them. I'm filing defamation lawsuits against them and their client." "Ask them [Edwards and Cassell] if they have any evidence . . . They're doing it for money. She's getting money for having sold her story. She wants to sell the book. They're trying to get into this lawsuit. They see a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. They're [Edwards and Cassell] prepared to lie, cheat, and steal. These are unethical lawyers. This is Professor Cassell who shouldn't be allowed near a student. This is Professor Cassell, who is a former federal judge, thank God he no longer wears a robe. He is essentially a crook. He is essentially somebody who's distorted the legal profession.... " "And so we [Jeffrey Epstein and I] can prove it [i.e., the falsity of the allegations] without any doubt. That's what's so absurd. That's what's so strange why two experienced lawyers would file this kind of statement knowing it was untrue. These [Cassell and Edwards] are virtually the equivalent of perjurers, and they have to be taken out of the legal profession. They can't be allowed to have a bar card to victimize more innocent people. They claim to victims' rights lawyers, but they're not. They're hurting victims. They're hurting rape victims. Because they're putting forward somebody who is not a rape victim who is claiming to be a rape victim. " 6 EFTA00608906 http://www.cnn.corn/videos/worldf20 1 5/0 1 /05/wm-uk-sex-abuse-allegations-alan-dershowitz- intv.cnn Today Show —January 5, 2015: "Her lawyers Paul Cassell, a former federal judge and Brad Edwards, deliberately and willfully filed this interpleading which they knew I had no opportunity to respond to in court, without doing any investigation, if they had simply investigated the manifests of the airplanes, if they had checked my travel records, if they had asked me and I could have given the names of these people who are witnesses, they would know the stories, totally, completely false." "These lawyers [Edwards and Cassell] engaged in unethical behavior and should be disbarred... . Because they filed a paper in which they didn't ask to try to prove it, they didn't say we alleged, we want to prove it. They just threw it in there, it's the legal equivalent of scribbling something on a toilet stall and then running away. They didn't think they would be any response and they will rue the day that they filed this unethical complaint because, they I believe will be disbarred." "They want to just throw this stink bomb and then avoid any responsibility for it...the truth will come out and it will show these two unethical lawyers should be disbarred." httos://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXePKTws0f0 Boston Globe — January 6, 2015: Dershowitz said (in what was described as a brief phone interview Tuesday) that Jane Doe No. 3's claims are outrageous and her attorneys, including former federal judge Paul Cassell, should be disbarred. "[Cassell] is a money-grubbing, unethical sleazebag, a former federal judge who left the bench for money. The end result of this will be bankruptcy, disbarment, and eternal disgrace." httn://www.bostonglobe.com/lifestvle/names/201 5/01 /06/alan-dershowitz-denies-woman-claim- underage-sex-vows-punish-her-attomevs/qr2kO6MJd2cD2djISHBopOistorv.html Reuters — January 7, 2015: "Dershowitz told Reuters Monday that he would file a defamation lawsuit based on the lawyers' public statements about the case. He also plans to file complaints with their respective states' disciplinary boards asking that they be disbarred." 7 EFTA00608907 "They [Cassell and Edwards] also said they had tried to depose Dershowitz and that he had refused, which Dershowitz called a `total lie.' He said he received only one deposition request from the two lawyers five years ago, asking about his relationship with Epstein - and that it said nothing about any of the new allegations." http://www.reuters.com/article/20 1 5/01/07/us-andrew-lawsuit-dershowitz- idUSION0KF0DH20150107 Boston Globe — January 7, 2015: Dershowitz said the allegations against him, besides being false, contain faulty legal research, such as the age of consent in New Mexico and other states. "The truth is a defense in defamation, and I will prove that my statements about the lawyers are well-founded," Dershowitz said. "I will not stop until they have acknowledged" the allegations against him are untrue. htto://www. bostonglobe.com/metro/2015/01/06/sued-for-defamation-dershowitz-thril led-chance- auestion-lawyers-sex-crime-accuser/21OibSrwNC343eICMadWNeL/storv.html Fox Business (Lou Dobbs) — January 7, 2015 "They [Edwards and Cassell] did it for crass financial and political reasons. More to the point is [what] they didn't do... I did the investigation in a day and was able to prove through all kinds of records that I couldn't have been in these places.

"Why any responsible lawyer would believe her and file this kind of charge ....they willfully and deliberately made this up in order to gain a litigation advantage, [to] line their pockets with money.

"I'm going to file disciplinary charges against the lawyers [i.e., against Edwards and Cassell]. I've spoken to some of the world's leading experts on ethics. And what they did was utterly unprofessional and improper." "I still can't understand why they [i.e., Edwards and Cassell] would pick on me. . .. They picked on the wrong innocent victim. . . . I am not letting go of this thing until they admit that they essentially concocted this story and withdraw it." "I can now depose them [Edwards and Cassell]. . . . So they're now at risk of a perjury prosecution if I can prove that they knowingly made a false allegation against me, which I think I can." "It [the allegation against me] is utterly irrelevant to their lawsuit. They [Edwards and Cassell] just put it in gratuitously." "The end will be that they [Edwards and Cassell] will be disbarred.

American Lawyer/Palm Beach Daily Business Review - January 20, 2015: "They [Edwards and Cassell] want to void the plea agreement and needed to find a lawyer who knew Epstein before [the indictment], and had been on his island, his home in New Mexico, Palm Beach. I fit the bill. It was lawyer profiling." 9 EFTA00608909 "Everyone is shocked that he [Cassell] would be part of this. I think he's always hated me because Pm his opposite. I'm the conventional liberal he hates: I'm against the death penalty, I'm pro-abortion rights, pro-gun control." The Today Show - January 22, 2015: In response to a question from Savannah Guthrie that "In legal papers from the lawyers, they say you've had, in fact, the opportunity to be deposed," Dershowitz responded: "They're lying. They're lying." In response to a question from Savannah Guthrie that "[t]hey show letters in which they offered to depose you," Dershowitz responded: "And they didn't show my letters in response saying, (a), if you ask me about my legal relationship with Epstein and I'll be happy to answer. . . . And I responded that I would be happy to be deposed if you could give me any indication that I would be a relevant witness "They will be proved — all of them [i.e., Cassell, Edwards, and Jane Doe No. 3] — to be categorically lying and making up this story. And it will be a terrible thing for rape victims. They have put rape victims in a terrible position. Because when I unequivocally prove that they sat down and made this all up, tragically it will hurt all rape victims." "The lawyers are lying through their teeth when they say I've refused to be deposed. . . . We [Epstein and Dershowitz] had an academic relationship. I was never in the presence of a single, young, under-aged woman. When I was with him, it was with prominent scientists, prominent academics. And they're just — again — lying about this. I never saw him doing anything improper. I was not a participant. I was not a witness. And I will prove it categorically." Independent Online (UK) —January 22, 2015: " The lawyers are lying through their teeth when they say I have refused to be deposed." American Lawyer — January 28, 2015: Dershowitz has called both Cassell and Edwards, a Florida personal injury lawyer, "liars"... http://www.americanlawver.com/id=1202716384195/Meet-the-Lawver-Whos-Giving: Dershowitz-Hell#ixzz3OE8mX0VI 10 EFTA00608910 Speech to the Dade County Bar Association — Feb. 20, 2015: "Of course, I didn't know this woman [Jane Doe No. 3], I'd never heard of her, I never saw her, totally made up out of the blue, and made up by two irresponsible lawyers who hadn't done sufficient checking. If they had called me and checked with me, they would see that I was in the places they said this happened only once each, both with my wife and my daughter and a group of witnesses and friends, including a very prominent professor at the Harvard business school. They never would have filed this drive by shooting. By the way, they didn't even ask for a hearing, they didn't say they would prove it." "Not only will I prevail in this case, because the accusation is totally — completely, completely — totally fabricated and made up. But I hope it will change the law. I hope it will make it impossible for future lawyers to just do these kind of drive by shootings, where without any real investigation, without any real preparation, they just make these allegations." "And yet these two lawyers — Brad Edwards, from, whose partner Rothstein is now in jail for 50 years for a Ponzi scheme involving the same case, and a guy named Cassell — filed this grievance, not grievance, just allegation again me in passing without doing even the most minimal of investigation, which would have proven conclusively that I not only didn't, but couldn't have, possibly done it." On information and belief, additional statements of an equivalent defamatory character can also be found in other publications and sources. In addition to the specific sources cited above, many of the statements cited above were republished or rebroadcast on the Internet and in other places. In addition, on information and belief, Dershowitz made statements of an equivalent character in written or oral communications with various associates and acquaintances, including Ken Starr, Akhil Amar, and members of the faculty at the Harvard Law School. 2. Separately for Each statement identified in response to the proceeding Interrogatory, if any part of the statement is true, identify the part that is true. ANSWER: The factual assertions contained or implied in the statements quoted in answer to Interrogatory Number I were not true, notably with regard to claims that Edwards and Cassell with deliberately lying, had failed to conduct an investigation of the allegations before filing them, had manipulated or conspired with Jane Doe No. 3 to make intentionally false allegations about Mr. Dershowitz, and that Plaintiffs were motivated to participate in the filing of knowingly false accusations against the Defendant by a desire to achieve personal economic gain. II EFTA00608911 3. Separately for Each statement identified in response to Interrogatory No. 1, if You believe the statement was made with knowledge that the statement was false or with reckless disregard of whether the statement was false or not, describe in detail All facts that support Your belief. ANSWER: Facts supporting belief that Dershowitz knew the statements described in response to Interrogatory No. 1 were false (and also made the statements with reckless disregard of whether the statements were false) are found in the documents and other materials and references provided in answer to Request for Production Number 2. On information and belief, Dershowitz also learned significant information during the course of his representation of Jeffrey Epstein that would have made it clear that he was making false representations about Edwards and Cassell. He has revealed some of those facts publicly, and discovery regarding other such facts is on-going. 4. Describe in detail All facts Concerning the "character assassination" referenced in paragraph 8 of the Complaint. ANSWER: See answer to Interrogatory number 1. 5. Describe in detail All facts Concerning Dershowitz's alleged "participation in Epstein's criminal conduct" referenced in paragraph 16 of the Complaint. ANSWER: At the time of the filing of legal pleadings referencing the Defendant Dershowitz and continuing up to and including the time of the filing of these response, Plaintiffs had reason to believe and do in fact believe in good faith believe that Dershowitz participated in Epstein's illegal sexual activities, including having criminal sexual relations with Jane Doe No. 3 — at Epstein's direction and invitation -- in Florida, New York, and elsewhere. See documents and other materials and references provided in answer to Request for Production Number 2. Dershowitz also failed to disclose his awareness of illegal sexual behavior and abuse of minors by Epstein and others that occurred in Florida, New York, and elsewhere. Dershowitz also travelled on aircraft with Epstein and Epstein's criminal associates (e.g, Sarah Kellen). Dershowitz also unethically assisted in providing criminal defense representation to Epstein in connection with possible federal and state criminal charges against him (Epstein), even though he (Dershowitz) was a witness to significant events concerning the crimes and even though he had his own personal interests in the outcome of the charging decision. As a result of all this, Dershowitz's communications with Epstein fall with the crime/fraud/misconduct exception to the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine. On information and belief, Dershowitz and Epstein possess significant other evidence regarding crimes against minor girls (including Jane Doe No. 3), but have refused — and are continuing to refuse — to provide it to law enforcement or otherwise make it public. 12 EFTA00608912 6. Describe in detail All facts Concerning Dershowitz's alleged knowledge that the filing referenced in paragraph 17 of the Complaint was "an entirely proper and well-founded pleading." ANSWER: See documents and other materials and references provided in answer to Request for Production Number 2. These materials make clear that Dershowitz had sexual relations with Jane Doe No. 3 and that a pleading filed by her lawyers to that effect was entirely proper and well-founded. In addition, the documents and other materials and references make clear that Dershowitz knew that Edwards and Cassell had conducted significant investigation before filing the pleading — and that Edwards and Cassell had significant supporting evidence for the pleading. Dershowitz also knew that he (along with Epstein and his criminal associates) had evaded efforts to depose him about these subjects, which provided further legitimate support for Edwards and Cassell making such a filing. As a law professor and criminal defense attorney, Dershowitz was also well aware of the obligations of attorneys to zealously advocate on behalf of their clients and to pursue the reasonable and legitimate objectives of their clients. 7. Describe in detail All facts Concerning the "massive public media assault" referenced in paragraph 17 of the Complaint. ANSWER: See answers to Interrogatory Number 1 for illustrative examples of statements that were part of the massive public media assault waged by Dershowitz against Edwards and Cassell, as well as sources where additional statements can be found. Discovery on this subject is on-going, as Dershowitz is in the best position to provide this information. He alone knows which media sources he provided defamatory information to. 8. Identify the (a) date, (b) time, and (c) broadcast or print media source of Each of the "multiple national televised interviews," "statements to and repeated by national and international print news sources" and "various other forms nationally and internationally" alleged in paragraph 19 of the Complaint. ANSWER: See answers to Interrogatory Number 1 for illustrative examples of statements that were part of the massive public media assault waged by Dershowitz against Edwards and Cassell. Discovery on this subject is on-going, as Dershowitz is in the best position to provide this information. He alone knows which media sources he provided defamatory information to, and he alone continues to add to the list. 9. To the extent that any of the "multiple national televised interviews," "statements to and repeated by national and international print news sources" and "various other forms nationally and internationally" alleged in paragraph 19 of the Complaint have not been published or transcribed and produced by You in response to Dershowitz's First Set of Document Requests to You in this action, separately for Each such statement or interview, please state as closely as possible what was said by Each person or source. 13 EFTA00608913 ANSWER: See answers to Interrogatory Number 1 for illustrative examples of statements that were part of the massive public media assault waged by Dershowitz against Edwards and Cassell. Discovery is on-going regarding additional statements, the contents of which are best known by Dershowitz himself. 10. Describe in detail All facts Concerning the allegation in paragraph 20 of the Complaint that Dershowitz's "statements were false and known by him to be false at the time they were made." ANSWER: See answers to Interrogatory Number 1 for illustrative examples of statements that were part of the massive public media assault waged by Dershowitz against Edwards and Cassell, as well as sources where additional statements can be found. As described above, these statements were all false. With regard to Dershowitz's knowledge of the falsity of these statements, Dershowitz knew (for example) that he had had sexual relations with Jane Doe No. 3 multiple times (in Florida, New York, and elsewhere) when he denied having such relations with her. Dershowitz had also seen numerous underage girls while with Jeffrey Epstein, and had otherwise seen or been made aware of sexual abuse of those girls by Epstein and others. Dershowitz also knew that Edwards and Cassell had conducted a significant investigation into the allegations. Dershowitz also knew that other witnesses had either invoked the fifth amendment when asked about him or had put him at or near the scene of the crimes committed by Epstein against minors. Dershowitz also knew of the truth of many of the statements of Jane Doe No. 3. Dershowitz also knew that Edwards and Cassell had not conspired with Jane Doe No. 3. to fabricate charges against him — and that he had no evidence of such conspiracy or fabrication by them. See Answers to Requests for Production of Documents No. 2 for additional evidence on these points, which show (along with other evidence) that Dershowitz had knowledge that his statements were false. 11. Describe in detail All facts Concerning the allegation in paragraph 21 of the Complaint that Dershowiti falsely protested his own innocence. ANSWER: See answers to interrogatories numbers 1, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10 above, as well as the documents and other materials and references provided in answer to Request for Production Number 2. 12. Describe in detail All facts Concerning Dershowitz's alleged "involvement in Epstein's criminal conduct" as alleged in paragraph 21 of the Complaint. ANSWER: See answer to interrogatory number 5 above and documents provided in request for production number 2. 14 EFTA00608914 13. Describe in detail Each instance in which Jane Doe #3 has provided information referencing Dershowitz by name that Concern the allegations set forth in Paragraphs 24-31 of the 2015 Jane Doe #3 Declaration. ANSWER: Edwards and Cassell lack sufficient information to determine all circumstances in which Jane Doe No. 3 has mentioned to others Dershowitz's name as someone who abused her or had information relevant to abuse. With regard to when she has provided information related to this subject to them, Jane Doe No. 3 provided such information in telephone calls with Brad Edwards beginning in 2011. Jane Doe No. 3 has also provided this information in a public affidavit, filed on January 21, 2015, in the CVRA case. Jane Doe No. 3 has also provided similar information on other occasions, but the specifics of those communications are protected by the attorney-client privilege and the work product doctrine. 14. If You have ever seen a photograph or video of Jane Doe #3 with Dershowitz, then state when You saw the photograph or video, identify who took the original photograph or video, identify Each person who possesses a copy of the photograph or video, and state the location of Each such original and copy. ANSWER: Edwards and Cassell have not personally seen such a photograph or video. Discovery efforts to obtain photographic materials regarding Jane Doe No. 3 held by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida and/or other federal law enforcement and prosecuting agencies are on-going. 15. For Each communication between You or anyone acting on Your behalf, and anyone from, or acting on behalf of, any media outlet Concerning this action, the Joinder Motion, or Dershowitz, and regardless of whether such communication was "on the record" or "off the record," (a) state the date of the communication; (b) state the participants in the communication; and (c) describe the contents of the communication. ANSWER: Objection, not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence; vague, harassing, work-product 16. Describe in detail All facts Concerning any assertion that Dershowitz was a "coconspirator" with Epstein. ANSWER: See answers to interrogatory number 5 above, as well as answers to interrogatories numbers 1, 6, 8, 9, 10 above. In addition, factual information is found in the documents and other materials and references provided in answer to Request for Production Number 2 15 EFTA00608915 Dershowitz knew of and participated in Epstein's scheme to commit sexual offenses against minors — including Jane Doe No. 3 -- and to cover up those offenses, including providing knowingly false information to law enforcement to conceal these crimes and a false affidavit on Jan. 5, 2015. These actions violated federal and state criminal statutes, including 18 U.S.C. § 2423(b); 18 U.S.C. § 2422; 18 U.S.C. § 2241(c); 18 U.S.C. § 1591; as well as federal and state prohibition against conspiring to violate these statutes or statutes like them, including 18 U.S.C. § 371; and 18 U.S.C. § 2423(e). 17. Describe in detail All facts Concerning any assertion that Dershowitz negotiated the NPA for his own benefit. ANSWER: The fact that the NPA benefits Dershowitz by blocking his prosecution, in the Southern District of Florida, for his crimes against minor girls does not appear to be disputed. See NPA at 5 (barring prosecution of any "potential co-conspirator of Epstein"). Many of the facts surrounding the negotiation of the NPA are revealed in correspondence between Jeffrey Epstein legal defense team (which included Dershowitz) and prosecutors the U.S. Department of Justice, including the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida. That correspondence is well known and available to Dershowitz. Edwards and Cassell rely on that correspondence in answer to this interrogatory. But disclosure of the specifics of that correspondence is currently barred by a confidentiality order entered in the CVRA case. Dershowitz has also claimed repeatedly in the media and (on information and belief) elsewhere that he obtained a very favorable deal for Jeffrey Epstein during plea discussions. Dershowitz has also suggested that he was the lead attorney on the defense team. In light of his willingness to take credit for the arrangement, it appears reasonable to conclude that he was involved in negotiating the unique co-conspirator arrangement. Further discovery on these issues is on- going. Of course, Dershowitz is in a position to shed light on this subject by revealing all of the negotiations concerning the NPA. 18. Describe in detail All facts Concerning any actions allegedly taken by Prince Andrew, Duke of York to influence the terms of the NPA. ANSWER: Objection, this seeks information not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence in this defamation action. Discovery on this subject is on-going not only in this case, but also in the CVRA case. In the CVRA case, Jane Does No. 1 and 2 (and, if permitted to join the action, Jane Does No. 3 and 4) have a pending discovery request for materials connected with Prince Andrew. On December 1, 2011, Jane Doe No. 1 and Jane Doe No. 2 propounded a Request for Admission (RFA) asking the Government to admit that it possesses "documents, correspondence or other information reflecting contacts with the Department between May 2007 and September 2008 on behalf of Jeffrey Epstein by . . . (b) Andrew Albert Christian Edward (a/k/a Prince Andrew, Duke of York); (c) Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz." While the Government denied that it had 16 EFTA00608916 documents reflecting contacts by Prince Andrew, it specifically admitted possessing documents reflecting contacts by Dershowitz. Gov't Answer to RFA #6. Since then, however, the Government has provided approximately 10,000 pages of documents associated with the NPA and Jeffrey Epstein to Judge Marra for in camera inspection. The privilege log for those documents is not sufficiently complete to review those documents for possible connection to Prince Andrew. In addition, even though the Government has had approximately one-and-half- years to complete production of documents, it has not yet completed production — and has not yet certified that it has produced all such documents to the Court for in camera inspection. Edwards and Cassell are aware that on about May 3 through 8, 2007, Prince Andrew's mother -- Queen Elizabeth II - visited the United States, and was apparently hosted by President George W. Bush. Who came with the Queen and what (if any) discussions were held about the case, either directly or indirectly at that time, are unknown at this time. Of course, the NPA was concluded several months later on favorable terms, including the highly unusual "blank check" provision that provided immunity from federal prosecution to Epstein's "potential co- conspirators." Edwards and Cassell are also aware Prince Andrew was a close friend of Jeffrey Epstein at the time that the NPA was being negotiated, and that Jeffrey Epstein hired a battery of attorneys to negotiate favorable terms for the NPA (including Dershowitz). Based on all of the information found in the documents and other materials and references provided in answer to Request for Production Number 2, it also appears that Epstein was gathering blackmail material on his powerful friends (through Jane Doe No. 3 and others), including Prince Andrew. Details of contacts between Epstein and Prince Andrew while the NPA was being negotiated are accessible to Dershowitz (as a close personal friend and confidante of Epstein's), but are not (at this time) accessible to Edwards and Cassell. Both Epstein and Prince Andrew have refused repeated efforts by legal counsel for various victims who have attempted to obtain information on this subject. Efforts to obtain further information from Prince Andrew on these subjects are on- going. 19. Describe in detail any actual or potential book, television, movie, or other media desks) Concerning Jane Doe #3's allegations about being a sex slave. ANSWER: Objection; vague, irrelevant and not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. Construing the term "deal" as a paid media appearance, no deal exists. With regard to "potential" deal, the term "potential" is vague and impossible to respond to with precision. 20. State the date when You first became aware of any allegation by Jane Doe #3 that she has had sex with Dershowitz and describe in detail All actions You took, including All documents reviewed and All persons with whom You communicated and the dates and contents of those communications, to determine if the allegation was true. 17 EFTA00608917 ANSWER: Edwards and Cassell were aware that Dershowitz was a close personal friend and confidant of Jeffrey Epstein in approximately 2008 and read whatever public articles were available. Edwards and Cassell also had extensive evidence that Epstein was involved in brazen daily sexual crimes against underage girls in 2008 and following, as shown in the documents and other materials and references provided in answer to Request for Production Number 2. Those brazen sexual crimes often involved Epstein's friends and confidants. Those crimes were also conducted with such frequency and in such a way that it would have been extremely unlikely for someone staying overnight with Epstein (or traveling on his personal jet) to have been unaware of those crimes. Extensive discovery was taken in the civil cases against Mr. Epstein, and Dershowitz was mentioned by several witnesses as being a friend, as opposed to just a lawyer to Epstein, he was on the private plane of Mr. Epstein numerous times, and each witness who would have actual knowledge of Mr. Dershowitz's involvement either invoked the 5th amendment when asked about Dershowitz or provided testimony consistent with Dershowitz's criminal knowledge or involvement. In about March or April 2011, on a telephone interview with Edwards, Jane Doe No. 3 disclosed that she had been sexually abused by Dershowitz. It is public record that the materials that Edwards and Cassell reviewed and collected in connection with related investigations include the extensive materials provided in answer to Request for Production Number 2. 21. Describe in detail All facts Concerning any investigation by You or on Your behalf of Jane Doe #3. ANSWER: Except to the extent disclosed in materials provided in response to Request to Produce, Plaintiffs object based on the attorney-client and work product privileges. 22. Are You aware whether Jane Doe #3 ever give her body for sexual activity for hire or ever agreed to secure other persons for the purpose of prostitution or for any other lewd or indecent act and, if so, state Your knowledge as to when and how many times. We am aware of Mr. Epstein paying Doe #3 for sex, the details of which are disclosed in the filed affidavit of Jane Doe#3. Mr. Dershowitz undoubtedly knows these details much more intimately, and we expect him to provide those details consistent with his statement that he has "nothing to hide." 23. Describe in detail All harm that You suffered as a result of any allegedly defamatory statements by Dershowitz. ANSWER: Edwards and Cassell have suffered defamation per se, as the defamatory statements were intended to and did injure Edwards' and Cassell'sprofessional reputations. Their injuries are ongoing and continuing in nature. 18 EFTA00608918 Edwards and Cassell also suffered presumed damages. Cassell suffered general damages and special damages. These damages include mental pain and anguish and suffering, personal humiliation, damage to reputation both past and future, and impairment of ability to earn a living or seek better employment. These damages also include lost income past and future and lost earning capacity, including lost opportunities for legal consulting and paid expert witness testimony. Edwards and Cassell have also incurred costs and attorneys' fees associated with efforts to protect his reputation from ongoing assaults including the prosecution of this cause of action. The amount of those costs and attorneys' fees is increasing as the action progresses. Edwards and Cassell seek recovery for all of the damages, costs, and attorneys' fees. They also seek pre- and post-judgment interest. 24. State separately the amount of compensatory, punitive, and any other damages that You are seeking from Dershowitz and explain how You calculate Each amount reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. ANSWER: All damage amounts are presently unliquidated but are reasonably anticipated to well exceed hundreds of thousands of dollars for each of the Plaintiffs. After presentation of the facts to a jury of the circumstances of the defamatory statements and also of the net worth of Dershowitz, the Plaintiffs will leave the determination of fair and reasonable compensation and appropriate punitive damages in the sound and well-informed discretion of a jury. For lost past and future income, Cassell is gathering the relevant information for an economic damages expert to derive a calculation. It appears that the Cassell's income earned outside of his employment as a law professor has fallen since Dershowitz began his media assault as a direct result of that media assault and will remain at a depressed level in the future. A calculation of the amount of loss will provided when an appropriate expert is retained and advises as to the relevant materials needed for such a calculation. Damages for lost income and lost earning capacity are alone expected to be several hundreds of thousands of dollars. For punitive damages, the evidence at trial will demonstrate (among other things) that Dershowitz acted deliberately, willfully, with actual malice, and with the specific intent to harm Edwards and Cassell. Accordingly, under F.S.A. § 768.73, there is no cap on the amount of punitive damages that may be awarded. Given (1) the flagrancy, deliberateness, willfulness, egregiousness and reprehensibility of Dershowitz's attacks, (2) his repetition of the attacks in numerous forums around the globe, (3) his significant wealth, (4) the need to punish Dershowitz for his wrongful and outrageous conduct in the past; (5) the need to deter Dershowitz and others ftom similar misconduct in the future, and (6) other related 19 EFTA00608919 factors punitive damages in the amount of millions of dollars may be appropriate and will not unduly economically castigate or bankrupt Dershowitz. Costs and attorneys' fees will be sought and calculated in the ordinary manner at the conclusion of the proceedings. Pre- and post judgment interest will also be sought and calculated in the ordinary manner at the conclusion of the proceedings. 20 EFTA00608920 PAUL G.

Edwards and Cassell have collected documents pointing to Dershowitz's involvement in Epstein's sexual abuse of underage girls over a nearly seven year period of time, including legal work that they did in connection with the long-running case of Does v. United States, 9:08-cv-80736-KAM (S.D. Fla. filed July 7, 2008). They have also represented numerous victims in civil actions against Jeffrey Epstein, which involved many pleadings which are public documents. Of course, these cases also involved numerous attorney-client communications as well as materials covered by the work- product doctrine. Without waiving these objections, privileges, or other protections, Edwards and Cassell produce the following attached materials. On information and belief, Dershowitz also possesses significant information that is responsive to this request - information that Edwards and Cassell have requested from Dershowitz in their requests for production. 3. All Documents Concerning Dershowitz's alleged knowledge that the filing referenced in paragraph 17 of the Complaint was "an entirely proper and well-founded pleading."

All Documents Concerning any press release Concerning this action, the Joinder Motion, or Dershowitz, or Jane Doe #3. Objection as to "all documents concerning" in that it requests information not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence; attorney-client privilege, work- product doctrine, overly burdensome, vague, harassing. Without waiving objection, Dershowitz already possesses a copy of a press release sent to the media by Edwards and Cassell on or about January 2, 2015, that read as follows: Out of respect for the court's desire to keep this case from being litigated in the press, we are not going to respond at this time to specific claims of indignation by anyone. As you may know, we are litigating a very important case, not only for our clients but crime victims in general. We have been informed of Mr. Dershowitz's threats based on the factual allegations we have made in our recent filing. We carefully investigate all of the allegations in our pleadings before presenting them. We have also tried to depose Mr. Dershowitz on these subjects, although he has avoided those deposition requests. Nevertheless, we would be pleased to consider any sworn testimony and documentary evidence Mr. Dershowitz would like to provide which he contends would refute any of our allegations. The point of the pleading was only to join two of our clients in the case that is currently being litigated, and while we expected an agreement from the Government on that point, we did not get it. That disagreement compelled us to file our motion. We intend only to litigate the relevant issues in Court and not to play into any sideshow. We feel that is in our clients' best interest and consequently that is what we are doing. We have every intention of addressing all of the relevant issues in the course of proper legal proceedings. Toward that end we have issued an invitation (a copy of which is attached below) to Alan Dershowitz to provide sworn testimony and any evidence he may choose to make available regarding the facts in our recent pleading that relate to him.

But, in truth, and as supported by numerous documents, on at least three occasions since 2009, Mr. Dershowitz was informed that he was a key witness in the litigation against Jeffrey Epstein and was requested to testify. We advised him at that time as follows: `Multiple individuals have placed you in the presence of Jeffrey Epstein on multiple occasions and in various locations when Jeffrey Epstein was in the company of underage females subsequently identified as victims of Mr. Epstein's criminal molestation. This information is derived from both someone's testimony and private interviews. Your personal observations regarding such circumstances would clearly not involve any privileged communications, and it is those observations that will be the primary focus of our questioning.' Despite this notice to Mr. Dershowitz, he failed to respond or testify in any fashion. Mr. Dershowitz has not responded to multiple efforts to take his testimony beginning in 2009. 21.

This seal has been requested by, and obtained by, Dershowitz's close friend, client and co-conspirator, Jeffrey Epstein, over the objection of Edwards and Cassell on behalf of their clients. Accordingly, Dershowitz should request that Epstein withdraw his request for sealing so that these materials can be produced to Dershowitz.

See also pleadings and response to Interrogatory #1 filed in this case.

As you may know, we are litigating a very important case, not only for our clients but crime victims in general. We have been informed of Mr. Dershowitz's threats based on the factual allegations we have made in our recent filing. We carefully investigate all of the allegations in our pleadings before presenting them. We have also tried to depose Mr. Dershowitz on these subjects, although he has avoided those deposition requests. Nevertheless, we would be pleased to consider any sworn testimony and documentary evidence Mr. Dershowitz would like to provide which he contends would refute any of our allegations. The point of the pleading was only to join two of our clients in the case that is currently being litigated, and while we expected an agreement from the Government on that point, we did not get it. That disagreement compelled us to file our motion. We intend only to litigate the relevant issues in Court and not to play into any sideshow. We feel that is in our clients' best interest and consequently that is what we are doing. We have every intention of addressing all of the relevant issues in the course of proper legal proceedings. Toward that end we have issued an invitation (a copy of which is attached below) to Alan Dershowitz to provide sworn testimony and any evidence he may choose to make available regarding the facts in our recent pleading that relate to him. The invitation has been extended by Jack Scarola, who is familiar with the issues.
