Deutsche Bank Begs The Judge To Dismiss The Epstein Related Civil Suit Against Them

Deutsche Bank requested that a U.S. federal court dismiss a class-action lawsuit filed by an accuser of Epstein, arguing that the bank neither participated in nor benefited from Epstein’s sex-trafficking operation and therefore is not legally responsible in the way the complaint alleges. The bank asserted that it merely provided “routine banking services” to Epstein from 2013 to 2018, and that the plaintiff failed to allege sufficient facts under the federal anti-trafficking statute (Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act) or establish any direct duty by the bank to protect the victim.

In addition, Deutsche Bank argued that the plaintiff’s claims under New York’s Adult Survivors Act (which temporarily allowed claims even after statute-of-limitations expiration) were legally deficient because the bank did not cause the abuse or engage in the trafficking itself. The bank contended that even acknowledging Epstein’s misconduct, the claims improperly targeted the “wrong party.” While the court later dismissed several of the claims brought against Deutsche Bank, it allowed several others to proceed, meaning the motion to dismiss was only partly successful.
