GOLDBERGER: The reason why I 10 asked to come sidebar, there is a 11 nonprosecution agreement with the United 12 States Attorney's office that triggers as a 13 result of this plea agreement. In other 14 words, they have signed off and said they 15 will not prosecute Mr. Epstein in the 16 Southern District of Florida for any 17 offense upon his successful taking of this 18 plea today.
