## Re: Maria Farmer v. DarrenK. lndyke and Richard D. Kahn, in their capacities as the executors of the Estate of Jeffrey Edward Epstein,

Civil Action No. 19-cv-10474

Dear Judge Buchwald,

We are counsel to non-party Alan Dershowitz (hereinafter "Prof. Dershowitz"). We respectfully submit this letter in regard to the Court's decision dated December 23, 2019 [ECF No. 12] in which the <;ourt exercised its authority pursuant to F.R.C.P. Rule 12(±)(1) to strike "redundant, immaterial, iinpertinent, and/or scandalous" content regarding Prof. Dershowitz sua sponte from the plaintiff Maria Farmer's complaint [ECF No. 1, ,r 39].

Although the Court's order provides the relief Prof. Dershowitz sought, plaintiff's complaint remains without amendment on the public docket with the stricken content intact. Dershowitz respectfully requests that the Court issue an order directing the plaintiffto file an amended complaint, with the stricken material contained in paragraph 39 omitted, lest this respected Court's order have no practical effect.

CC:All Counselof Record (via ECF)

Respectfully Submitted,
<signature>
Imran H. Ansari, Esq.
