Ghislaine Maxwell’s legal team moved forward with appealing her case to the Supreme Court on Monday, three days after the accomplice of Jeffrey Epstein met with a top Justice Department official. The convicted child sex trafficker’s team filed a new brief with the Supreme Court urging it to overturn her conviction.

The Supreme Court could decide in late September whether to hear Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal of her 2021 sex-trafficking conviction.

S en. Dick Durbin, the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., sent a letter to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche Monday morning seeking a public commitment that the DOJ will not advocate for a pardon or commutation for Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell in exchange for her cooperation.

Ghislaine Maxwell, the Jeffrey Epstein associate who was convicted of sex trafficking, has said she was improperly prosecuted and wants the Supreme Court to hear her appeal.

The new filing responds to a Justice Department brief that argued the justices should leave Maxwell's criminal convictions in place.

Former Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell petitions Supreme Court to review her case, claiming federal prosecutors violated a non-prosecution agreement made in 2007.

Ghislaine Maxwell, an associate of Jeffrey Epstein, was convicted in 2021 for her role in helping Epstein recruit, groom and abuse underage girls.
