SDNY COURTHOUSE,
April 16 – After the
death of Jeffrey Epstein in
the MCC prison, Annie Farmer
is pursuing her civil lawsuit
for sex trafficking against
his "madame" Ghislaine Maxwell
and his estate.
On April
16 U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Lorna G. Schofield held
a conference on Ghislaine
Maxwell's letter responding
Farmer's complaint, including
that it involved "lumping" of
issues.
Judge Schofield said she does
not see lumping in the
complaint, and that does not
think that the motion or
motions Ghislaine Maxwell was
suggesting she would make
would be worth the
time.
Maxwell's lawyer
Laura Menninger of Denver's
Haddon, Morgan and Foreman,
P.C. was urged to submitted a
letter or answer in a week's
time. Menninger
pushed forward, saying that
given the case's link to New
Mexico and that Farmer is not
a resident of New York, the
shorter of the statute of
limitation might apply.
Judge
Schofield repeated that the
defendants, also for executors
of Epstein's estate Darren K.
Indyke and Richard D. Khan,
should file in a week's time.
Inner City Press will continue
to follow and report on this
case. It is Farmer v. Indyke,
et al, 19-cv-10475
(Schofield).
