According to a court order, a clerical error was made at the time of Epstein's plea conference, which made community service a requirement. Epstein was authorized to work at his not-for-profit Florida Science Foundation, the agreement stated. The court order states that "mandatory public service," which was checked as a condition of his probation, was a mistake. The order deletes it as a requirement of his probation. According to the Florida division of corporations, the Florida Science Foundation is inactive. Papers were filed Sept. 25 to administratively dissolve it. This is the second clerical error made regarding Epstein's probation. An earlier court order deleted the need for any electronic monitoring. According to that order, the plea agreement and hearing reflected that Epstein was not to be electronically monitored. Epstein, 56, served 13 months of his 18-month sentence at the Palm Beach County Stockade for procuring a minor for prostitution and soliciting prostitution. He is serving a one- year probation in his Palm Beach mansion. The money manager is still fighting more than a dozen lawsuits - state and federal — from young women who say they were sexually abused by him when they were minors.
