Court Mandates Leon Black Deposition in Jeffrey Epstein–Linked Bank of America Case (3/13/26)

Billionaire financier Leon Black was ordered to sit for a deposition as part of a civil lawsuit brought by women who say they were abused by Jeffrey Epstein and who are now suing Bank of America for allegedly facilitating Epstein’s trafficking network. The lawsuit claims the bank failed to properly scrutinize suspicious financial activity tied to Epstein, including large payments that Black made to Epstein over several years. Those payments—reported to total more than $150 million between 2012 and 2017—were described by Black as compensation for tax and estate planning advice. Lawyers for the accusers argue that the money and related financial relationships helped sustain Epstein’s trafficking operation, making Black a critical witness in the broader effort to examine how Epstein’s financial network functioned.

A federal judge ruled that Black must provide sworn testimony, though the deposition was briefly delayed and rescheduled for late March after his attorneys sought additional time, citing the possibility of settlement discussions in the case. The deposition is expected to last up to eight hours, with questioning divided between attorneys for Epstein’s accusers and lawyers representing Bank of America. Black has denied any knowledge of Epstein’s sex-trafficking crimes and maintains that his payments were solely for legitimate financial services. The lawsuit against the bank is part of a wider wave of litigation seeking accountability from financial institutions that allegedly handled Epstein’s accounts despite warning signs, following earlier settlements involving other major banks tied to Epstein’s financial dealings.
