But in email messages, Staley described Epstein as one of his “deepest” and “most cherished” friends, according to the regulator. The FCA’s decision is provisional and Staley, who has previously said he “deeply regrets” his relationship with Epstein, can appeal at an ensuing tribunal. Barclays said that following the FCA’s decision, Staley was ineligible for, or would forfeit, bonuses and share awards totaling 17.8 million pounds (21.9 million). Staley has said that he had no contact with Epstein once he joined Barclays in December 2015. JP Morgan also reached a confidential settlement with Staley, who it had sued for allegedly concealing his personal activities with Epstein from the bank.

The Falcons’ passing game should toil again, but don’t expect a Packers defense that was 28th against the run in 2022 to contain the rookie top-10 pick Bijan Robinson. Pick: Packers -1.5Las Vegas Raiders at Buffalo Bills, 1 p.m., CBSLine: Bills -9.5 | Total: 47Four careless turnovers from Josh Allen doomed the Bills (0-1) against the Jets’ formidable defense. Against the Titans (0-1), they’ll face a far less potent offense, but one that nevertheless boasts Derrick Henry, one of the best running backs of this era. Henry saw a diminished workload (63 yards on 15 carries) last week in a loss to the Saints, but could feast against the Chargers’ weak linebacker corps. — as Fields opened his second year as the Week 1 starter by passing for just one touchdown and getting sacked four times in a loss to the Packers.

☆ Lawyers for Epstein victim suing JP Morgan ask to recall Jamie Dimon and others for depositions

The plaintiff’s filing accuses JPMorgan of intentionally slow-walking its document production to avoid questioning on certain topics during depositions that occurred over the last few months. The plaintiff attorneys want to ask Dimon about an extensive JPMC internal review related to Epstein conducted in the fall of 2019. The financial institution produced “key documents” related to that review days after Dimon’s deposition, according to the motion. “These documents demonstrate that JPMC was fully capable of learning the full extent of Epstein and Staley’s personal relationship,” the filing says. “We do not believe there is any basis to reopen any of these depositions,” a spokesperson for JPMC told CNN on Friday afternoon.

☆ Judge rules Manhattan DA's office must turn over documents related to JP Morgan exec in bank lawsuit over Epstein connections
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-26 | by ( Lauren Del Valle | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

New York CNN —A federal judge ruled Friday that the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office must turn over documents related to former JPMorgan Chase (JPM) executive James “Jes” Staley in response to a subpoena from the bank in ongoing federal lawsuits that allege JPMorgan enabled and benefited from longtime banking-client Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking crimes. Staley has denied all wrongdoing alleged in the lawsuits. It is unclear if there is an active investigation into Staley. Judge Jed Rakoff overruled Bragg’s assertion of privilege over certain documents requested in the bank’s subpoena determining that after a full review he found that the privileges and statutes invoked by the Manhattan prosecutor do not apply to the requested documents. The documents will be sealed under a protective order, the ruling said.

☆ Jamie Dimon throws Staley off fortress battlements

Suing former employees – in this case using an archaic-sounding doctrine that brands Staley a “faithless servant” – isn't a great look, but the bank led by Jamie Dimon has more reasons than most to defend itself. His $400 billion firm is being pursued for unspecified damages by a woman who argues that it knew of Epstein’s sex trafficking venture, and is also being sued by the government of the U.S. Virgin Islands. The bank has delivered a more than 400% total return to shareholders since Dimon took over in 2006, while talking up its “fortress” balance sheet. If JPMorgan loses either of the lawsuits in which it is a defendant, it wants Staley to share in the damages. Current or future employees might worry they too could find themselves branded a faithless servant for failing to disclose moral missteps, or having clients who fall from grace.

Share Share Article via Facebook Share Article via Twitter Share Article via LinkedIn Share Article via EmailJPMorgan ordered to hand over more Jamie Dimon records in Epstein lawsuitCNBC’s Eamon Javers joins CNBC's Brian Sullivan and 'Last Call' to discuss the latest developments in former JPMorgan executive Jes Staley’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

According to the complaint, he was the first Black executive employee at AAMCO, a 60-year-old franchise business with nearly 600 automotive centers across North America. Hastings GroupBut in 2021, Staley said, he learned from another executive that his salary of $100,000 plus bonuses was almost $40,000 less than the other vice presidents. He raised concerns of “disparate treatment in compensation” to those above him, including to CEO James Gregory. Gregory told Mr. Staley that he was ‘disappointed’ in Mr. Staley for complaining of race discrimination and responded to Mr. Staley’s complaint by saying: ‘you make enough,’” according to the suit, which was filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Staley has since given up his attempt to become a co-franchisee and is now employed with Public Storage’s corporate offices.
