chief executive, accused JPMorgan of "slanderous" attacks as he seeks to delay a trial in the bank's lawsuit accusing him of concealing what he knew about Jeffrey Epstein.
Staley also asked to delay the Oct. 23 trial in his case to March 2024, saying the current "breakneck" schedule affords him "grossly insufficient" time to defend against and disprove JPMorgan's "false and highly-publicized" accusations. JPMorgan was sued late last year for unspecified damages by the U.S. Virgin Islands, where Epstein had a home, and for potentiallyby Epstein accusers led by an unnamed Jane Doe 1 for allegedly aiding in Epstein's sex abuse.
They said JPMorgan's motive for suing Staley was to "harass and intimidate" Epstein victims who seek accountability from the bank and force Jane Doe 1, a former ballet dancer, to divulge private medical records and "intimate" communications.
