A former JPMorgan banker's lawyer has been granted permission to withdraw from the case, but with a condition: he must inform JPMorgan if any false claims were made in the 'sex slave' lawsuit.
The lawyer, Daniel Kaiser, had initially sought to withdraw from the case in late May, but the reasons for this remain unclear.
Kaiser, who has previously represented accusers of Jeffrey Epstein, was mandated by the judge to provide disclosures regarding any false statements that his client may have made in the lawsuit.
The lawsuit, filed in April, claimed that the accuser was sexually abused by his JPMorgan manager, 37-year-old Lorna Hajdini.
The accuser's lawsuit stated that he acquiesced to her advances due to her position as his supervisor, expressing concern that she would jeopardize his career if he resisted her demands.
Hajdini firmly rejected the accusations, labeling them as entirely concocted.
JPMorgan supported her denial, asserting that ex-JPMorgan employee claims were fabricated.
