IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE FIFTEENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT IN AND FOR PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA Case No. 50-2009CA040800XXXXMBAG JEFFREY EPSTEIN, Plaintiff/Counter-Defendant, v. SCOTT ROTHSTEIN, individually, and BRADLEY J. EDWARDS, individually, Defendants/Counter-Plaintiff. PLAINTIFF/COUNTER-DEFENDANT JEFFREY EPSTEIN'S OBJECTION TO DEFENDANT/COUNTER-PLAINTIFF BRADLEY J. EDWARDS' REOUEST FOR JUDICIAL NOTICE PURSUANT TO FLORIDA STATUTES SECTIONS 90.202 AND 90.203 Plaintiff/Counter-Defendant, Jeffrey Epstein ("Epstein"), objects to Defendant/Counter- Plaintiff Bradley J. Edwards' ("Edwards") Request for Judicial Notice Pursuant to Florida Statutes Section 90.202 and 90.203, and states: INTRODUCTION This Court must deny Edwards' request for judicial notice of Epstein's New York State Sex Offender registration information pursuant to sections 90.202 and 90.203, Florida Statutes (2017). Pursuant to sections 90.401 and 90.403, Florida Statutes (2017), the registration information must be precluded from judicial notice and admissible evidence because it is wholly irrelevant to any claim to be tried in this matter and is presented solely to unfairly prejudice or inflame the jury against Epstein. Likewise, the registration information is akin to evidence that is precluded by sections 90.404, 90.405, 90.609, and 90.610, Florida Statutes (2017). Therefore, this Court must deny the request pursuant to the Florida Evidence Code. EFTA00806888
