JPMorgan's Epstein Lawsuit Against Former Exec Jes Staley Moves Forward

TL;DR Summary
Former JPMorgan executive Jes Staley has lost his bid to dismiss a complaint by the bank that seeks to hold him legally liable for sex trafficking by former JPMorgan customer Jeffrey Epstein. The bank filed a third-party complaint against Staley in March, arguing that if the Virgin Islands proves its allegations, "Staley is solely liable to the USVI, or liable to JPMC for all sums awarded to the USVI and against JPMC, if any, at trial." The suit also seeks to claw back more than $80 million in compensation that Staley received from the bank, where he worked for three decades.
