INTRODUCTION Appellants Roy Black, Martin Weinberg, and Jeffrey Epstein hereby request that this Court stay the district court's order of June 18, 2013 (Doc. 188), Exhibit A hereto, ordering disclosure to plaintiffs of the intervenor attorneys' written communications with federal prosecutors in the Southern District of Florida made with the specific purpose of obtaining a favorable resolution of the criminal investigation of Jeffrey Epstein through attorney-to-attorney settlement negotiations. The central issue they will raise on appeal is whether communications made during the course of settlement/plea negotiations in a criminal case — communications falling within the heartland of Fed.

In determining whether to grant a stay pending appeal, the Court considers four factors: "(I) the likelihood that the moving party will ultimately prevail on the merits of the appeal; (2) the extent to which the moving party would be irreparably harmed by denial of the stay; (3) the potential harm to opposing parties if the stay is issued; and (4) the public interest."
