Re: Certified Title Search and Certified Appraisal - Little St James Island

Good morning,

For the purposes of forfeiture, I am hoping that we get an indication (from inclined to pursue Little St James Island.

as to whether SDNY is

EFTA00089152

The Last Deed of Record, dated 12/23/2011, indicates Nautilus Inc as holding the title. L.S.J. LLC was the previous owner. Epstein is/was the sole beneficial owner of both entities.

Before we go ahead and order the certified title report and certified appraisal, it would be advisable to determine if the island will be forfeited in a civil action.

Thanks.

Thanks for checking in. As I'm sure you can imagine, there's a lot going on in the case and we're still sorting out next steps. We are not sure yet how we will decide to address the question of forfeiture, and that's an ongoing and complicated conversation we're having with our supervisors, including the chiefs of the forfeiture unit. We'll definitely let you know once we have a better sense of how we'd like proceed. It may be a little while before we know, so thanks in advance for understanding.

Thanks,

I will proceed in anticipation of going forward with real property forfeiture (where appropriate) , until advised to stop.
