Case 9:08-cv-80380-KAM Document 24 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/10/2008 Page 1 of 4 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA CASE NO.: 08-CV-80380-MARRA JANE DOE NO. 4, Plaintiff, vs. JEFFREY EPSTEIN, Defendant. PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR ENLARGEMENT OF TIME TO RESPOND TO DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR STAY Plaintiff, Jane Doe No. 4, by and through undersigned counsel, files this Motion for Enlargement of Time to Respond to Defendant's Motion for Stay, and states as follows: 1. Defendant filed his Motion for Stay on June 20, 2008. Plaintiff's response is due on or before July 10, 2008. 2. Defendant's Motion for Stay is based upon the existence of purported parallel criminal actions, and is grounded in section 3509(k) of Title 18, United States Code. 3. Subsequent to filing his Motion for Stay on July 1, 2008, Defendant Epstein filed a Notice advising this Court that the State Court criminal action against the Defendant was resolved, but that the federal criminal proceeding remained pending. It is Plaintiff's counsel's understanding from press reports, however, that the federal criminal proceeding will be resolved in the same plea deal, which would make the Defendant's Motion for Stay moot. 4. Therefore, Plaintiff respectfully requests a brief enlargement of time of twenty (20 days) within which to file a memorandum in opposition to Defendant's Motion for Stay. This - 1 - EFTA02740424 Case 9:08-cv-80380-KAM Document 24 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/10/2008 Page 2 of 4 request for enlargement of time is in the interest of judicial economy and efficiency. 5. Additionally, Plaintiffs counsel requests this enlargement of time due to the demands on their time in other cases and matters. 6. Prior to filing this Motion, Plaintiffs counsel, Adam Horowitz, attempted to confer with defense counsel, to no avail. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully request that this Court enter an order enlarging by twenty (20) days the time within which the Plaintiff may respond to the Defendant's Motion for Stay, until July 30, 2008. Dated: July 10, 2008. Respectfully submitted, By: s/ Adam D. Horowitz Jeffrey M. Herman (FL Bar No. 521647) [Email Redacted] Stuart S. Mermelstein (FL Bar No. 947245) [Email Redacted] Adam D.
