| that Edwards and Cassell made in this other lawsuit are somehow |
| 2 |
| binding on Ms. Giuffre. |
| Edwards and Cassell had separate legal |
| 3 |
| counsel, Florida attorney |
| Jack Scarola. Whatever was going on |
| 4 |
| in |
| that case isn't binding |
| on Ms. Giuffre. |
| 5 |
| Under the relevant rules, an attorney's statements are |
| 6 |
| binding on a client only on a matter within the scope of the |
| relationship. |
| And |
| this |
| vindicating separate professional |
| 8 |
| interests, this was not vindicating some interest of |
| 9 Ms. Giuffre. |
| 10 |
| So for all those reasons, we ask that the defamation |
| 11 |
| litigation between Dershowitz and Edwards and Cassell be |
| 12 |
| excluded. Of course, you have the separate issue of Dershowitz |
| 13 |
| in front of you already. |
| 14 |
| Let me turn then to point number 19. Here again, we |
| 15 have a narrow issue presented to your Honor. We are asking |
| 16 |
| that you exclude Judge Marra's ruling on the joinder motion. |
| 17 |
| As your Honor is well aware, |
| the triggering event in this case |
| 18 |
| was when Ms. Giuffre, then known as Jane Doe Number 3, filed a |
| 19 |
| motion to join Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2 |
| in the Florida pro |
| 20 bono Crime Victims Rights action. |
| 21 |
| NOW, |
| Judge Marra denied that motion to join, but at |
| 22 |
| the same time he said, "The reason I'm denying the motion to |
| 23 |
| join is you can participate in the case in other ways without |
| 24 |
| being a formal party." |
| He cited, and I quote, "Of course, Jane |
| 25 |
| Doe 3 can participate in this litigated effort to vindicate the |
| SOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, |
