Prince Andrew’s lawyers tried again Monday to block a lawsuit by a woman who says he sexually assaulted her when she was 17, releasing details of a legal settlement in which she took $500,000 from Jeffrey Epstein not to bring further legal action.
Virginia Giuffre with Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell at Prince Andrew's home in London in a photo released with court documents. “He did not even know about it,” the representative said of the settlement. “He could not have been a ‘potential defendant’ in the settled case against Jeffrey Epstein both because he was not subject to jurisdiction in Florida and because the Florida case involved federal claims to which he was not a part.”
Virginia Giuffre, who says she was a victim of Jeffrey Epstein, center, leaves federal court in New York on Aug. 27, 2019.Oral arguments in Giuffre’s lawsuit are set to get underway Tuesday, four days afterGiuffre was not one of the four women in the case against Maxwell, and there were no allegations against Andrew as part of that case.
Giuffre’s attorney Sigrid McCawley said the request to halt the case was “just another in a series of tired attempts by Prince Andrew to duck and dodge the legal merits of the case Virginia Giuffre has brought against him,” adding, “All parties in litigation are subject to discovery, and Prince Andrew is no exception.”Steve Parsons / WPA Pool/Getty Images file
