Plaintiff,
v.
Defendant.
DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO COMPEL DOCUMENTS RESPONSIVE TO REQUEST TO
PRODUCE SERVED OCTOBER 21, 2009
Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein (hereinafter "Mr. Epstein"), by and through his
undersigned attorneys, moves this court for an order compelling the Plaintiff, L.M., to
respond to the Defendant's Second Request to Produce to Plaintiff, attached hereto as
Exhibit "A", and as grounds set forth would state:
1.
The Defendant served a Second Request for Production on October 21, 2009.
The request was served by fax and therefore would have been due November 20, 2009.
2.
This court entered a stay at the request of Attorney Edwards, in the above-
styled matter and as well as the case E.W. v. Jeffrey Epstein. The stay was entered
effective November 19 through December 21, 2009. Therefore, the Plaintiff would have had
two additional days following December 218` within which to file any objections or the
documents responsive to the request to produce.
The Plaintiff filed no response/no
objections.
3.
Attached as Exhibit "B" is the court's order on Epstein's Motion to Compel,
Motion for Sanctions to Strike Pleadings and for Contempt of Court which the court granted
in part. The court referenced the sanctions were denied without prejudice but cautioned
EFTA00723668
L.M. v. Epstein
Page 2
Plaintiff should the same conduct occur as the court has explained on the record when the
deposition was re-taken. Attached as Exhibit "C" is the court's order on Plaintiffs Motion
to Terminate the Deposition or to Limit the Deposition, which was also denied by this court.
The court allowed an additional six hours to depose the Plaintiff for the reasons stated on
the record. The Plaintiffs attorney was directed to provide a copy of the transcript of that
hearing so that L.M. understood the court's position regarding her conduct at the initial
session of her deposition.
4.
Defendant, Epstein, further moves for reasonable attorneys' fees for being
required to file this motion and attend the hearing in accordance with Rule 1.380, Florida
Rules of Civil Procedure.
