The order adds an additional layer of accountability to the congressional mandate that the Epstein Files be made public, as the courts will now independently determine if the DOJ adequately follows through with the ruling.

From the article:
>Federal judges from multiple jurisdictions this week approved the US Justice Department’s requests to not only unseal transcripts from its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation, but also include the release of hundreds of thousands of documents used during the case’s discovery phase.
>The rulings were a direct response to the passage of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which requires the government to make public all materials related to its investigations into Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislane Maxwell, with exceptions for information that could be damaging to their victims. The order adds an additional layer of accountability to the congressional mandate that the Epstein Files be made public, as the courts will now independently determine if the DOJ adequately follows through with the ruling.
>“The ‘plain language’ of the Epstein Files Transparency Act unequivocally intends to make public Epstein grand jury materials and discovery materials,” Judge Richard Berman wrote in his ruling. “In fact, the Act states that the Epstein files material must be made public ‘[n]ot later than 30 days after the date of enactment of this Act.”
>All three judges expedited their decisions to give the DOJ enough time to prepare the Epstein Files by their required release date of Dec. 19.

I’m more interested in the Jack Smith files.
We’ll see.
