Mark Steward, the former FCA head, said in a court on Friday that the JPMorgan claimed that the International Energy Agency was that the documents were providing “indicating Mr. Staley’s involvement in the criminal activity related to Mr. Ibstein’s extremist convictions.”

Stewire eventually did not agree with the evaluation of JPMorgan, according to a statement I saw.

He told the court that he was aware that FCA “did not explain in these measures that Mr. Stallie was involved or realized the criminal activities of Mr. Epstein and did not ask the court to conclude that he depended on these documents.”

His evidence came on the fifth day of the appeal, where Stallie tries to cancel a ban and a fine By FCA for “recklessness”, Barclays allow the organizer to mislead the nature of its relationship with one of the worst predators in modern memory.

Andrew Billy, who was the FCA coach at the time and is now the governor of the Bank of England, and also presented evidence on Friday.

He wrote in the statement of the accompanying witnesses that a FCA official informed him in 2019 that JPMorgan said that she “found documents suggesting some possible awareness of the relationship between Mr. Stali and Mr. Epsin.”

The central bank ruler said that the American bank has submitted an “unusual request” to FCA to force it to deliver documents related to Staley’s relationship with Epstein.

Billy wrote in his witnesses that the content of the documents “was concerned because he suggested that Mr. Stallie had misled Barclays and thus misled power.”

Epstein was found dead in the prison cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on charges of trafficking at women under the legal age. Epstein previously acknowledged that he was guilty of a minor of prostitution in 2008.

JPMorgan FCA told the payments on January 8, 2009 and August 31, 2009, and that the American bank “considers that there may be a connection” between payments and the selected email messages between Staley and Epstein.

One email message discussed a visit from Staley to the Epstein office in Palm Beach in January 2009.

Stali’s lawyer said that her client refused to comment on what the American Bank told FCA. JPMorgan also refused to comment.

JPMorgan filed a lawsuit against Staley, claiming that it had misled the bank by internally committing to the late perpetrator, and the two reached a secret settlement in 2023.
