Jeffrey Epstein's Non-Prosecution Agreement Does Not Bar the Superseding Indictment\n\nIn an Opinion and Order dated April 16, 2021, the Court denied the defendant's previous motion to dismiss the Indictment based on a 2007 non-prosecution agreement (\"NPA\") between Jeffrey Epstein and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Florida (the \"USAO-SDFL\"). The Court concluded, among other things, that \"under controlling Second Circuit precedent, the NPA does not bind the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York.\" (Apr. Op. at 3). In reaching this conclusion, the Court followed United States v. Annabi, 771 F.2d 670, 672 (2d Cir. 1985) (per curiam), which held that \"[a] plea agreement binds only the office of the United States Attorney for the district in which the plea is entered unless it affirmatively appears that the agreement contemplates a broader restriction.\" (Apr. Op. at 4). The defendant now moves to dismiss again based on the NPA. The bulk of the defendant's motion discusses the similarity between the additional charges in the S2 Indictment and the crimes enumerated in the immunity provisions of the NPA. But it does not matter what—or whom—the NPA purports to immunize, since the Court has already concluded that, under Annabi, the NPA does not bind this District.\n\nThe defendant cannot clear the initial hurdle of establishing that the NPA applies in this District and, accordingly, the motion should be denied.
