After our years-long legal battle with the FBI over the release of Jeffrey Epstein files, Attorney General Pam Bondi has announced plans to make flight logs and other documents connected to the disgraced late financier public, RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal.
First Amendment lawyer Dan Novack called Bondi's announcement "encouraging" after previous disclosure attempts from this outlet were blocked by the Justice Department and the Biden administration.

RadarOnline.com's lawsuit against the FBI regarding the release of Epstein files was previously dismissed by a New York judge.
During a recent interview with Fox News, the attorney general said she hopes to release "some Epstein information" this week, including flight logs and names of high-profile figures in the financier's orbit.
Bondi further noted she had Epstein files "sitting on my desk" following an order to disclose the records from President Donald Trump.
Novack, lawyer for RadarOnline.com, said of Bondi's plan to release the documents: "It's encouraging to hear the Justice Department taking a fresh look at this case.
"There has never been a valid justification to withhold these files from the public."

AG Pam Bondi announced she plans to release 'some Epstein information' following an order from President Trump.
As RadarOnline.com reported, our previous lawsuit against the FBI seeking the release of files related to its sex trafficking investigation into the convicted pedophile was dismissed by New York Judge Paul G. Gardeph in June 2024.
It has been alleged the agency received tips, reports, and complaints about Epstein's activities from 1996-2006, but the FBI did not open a case until July 24, 2006.
In his ruling, Judge Gardeph said the files were to remain secret because their public disclosure could interfere with the possible retrial of Ghislaine Maxwell, his former girlfriend.
Justice Department officials asked the judge to keep the files under wraps in fear it would give Maxwell a head start to appeal her 20-year prison sentence for her involvement in Epstein's sex trafficking conspiracy.

The judge dismissed our lawsuit after the government feared the release would give gHISLAINE mAXWELL A HEAD START ON HER APPEAL.
While Maxwell has not yet filed a certiorari petition, which asks the Supreme Court to review a lower court's decision, her lawyers filed a request to extend the deadline to file a certiorari petition to April 10, 2025, which the Supreme Court granted.
In light of Maxwell's extension and Bondi's recent statements, lawyers for RadarOnline.com asked the government if they intend to pursue the appeal.

Maxwell was granted an extension to file certiorari petition in her case.

Our attorneys said: "Given Attorney General Bondi’s recent statements on disclosing Jeffrey Epstein-related documents, we are reaching out to ask whether you still intend to pursue this appeal.
"If you do intend to pursue this appeal, will you agree to further extend the stay of the appeal? Ms. Maxwell recently requested to extend her deadline to file a petition for writ of certiorari to April 10, 2025, and the Supreme Court granted her request. Accordingly, will you agree to extend the stay until May 12, 2025?"
