JPMorgan CEO to be deposed over bank’s relation with Jeffrey Epstein – By Reuters (The Guardian) / Apr 18 2023
Federal judge has ordered Jamie Dimon to set aside two days for questioning with regards to the sex offender and former client
A federal judge on Tuesday ordered the JPMorgan Chase & Co CEO, Jamie Dimon, to set aside two days for depositions for what he knew about the bank’s relationship with the sex offender and former client Jeffrey Epstein.
The largest US bank faces lawsuits seeking damages by women who claim that Epstein sexually abused them, and by the US Virgin Islands, where the late financier had a home.
JPMorgan is separately suing a former private banking chief, Jes Staley, claiming he concealed what he knew about Epstein and should cover losses it may incur in the two lawsuits.
US district judge Jed Rakoff in Manhattan said Dimon can be questioned by the plaintiffs’ lawyers for five hours, and by Staley’s lawyer for two hour
