Well-known U.S. criminal defense lawyer Alan Dershowitz has vowed to seek the disbarment of two lawyers representing a woman who has accused him of sexually abusing her when she was underage. But legal experts said he faces an uphill battle.
In a filing in Florida federal court last week, former federal judge Paul Cassell and Florida plaintiffs attorney Bradley Edwards said that their client was forced as a minor by financier Jeffrey Epstein to have sex with several people, including Dershowitz and Britain's Prince Andrew.
Dershowitz, a Harvard University professor emeritus, represented Epstein against sex crime charges, for which he served a 13-month sentence after pleading guilty in 2008.
The lawyers' client is named in court papers as Jane Doe #3, but has been identified by Buckingham Palace as Virginia Roberts.
Dershowitz, 76, has denied that he ever had sex with Roberts - and said Cassell, a University of Utah law professor, and Edwards knew the charges were false when they filed them. He is currently not a target of the Roberts lawsuit. But Dershowitz is seeking to intervene in order to defend himself. Buckingham Palace officials have also denied the allegations against Prince Andrew.
Dershowitz told Reuters Monday that he would file a defamation lawsuit based on the lawyers' public statements about the case.

Liberals always fight. No matter what the odds or the evidence against them. That is how they usually win.
Let’s go to the videotape.
“they knew they were false”
funny how Marxist lawyers try and change the rules when it becomes personal. I’d like to see derz do some time to pay for all the finagling he’s done all these years.
The specifics of the story and problem aside, I find it curious that when one does a word search of the article for the word “Clinton,” it comes back null.
Alan D. was notorious for his avid defense of Bill Clinton during his 1999 impeachment trial. He was omnipresent throughout all three networks, print and magazines. Yet in this instance of pedophilia, under aged sex and bacchanalia, Clinton’s name is nowhere to be found.
Reuters Clinton Protection Squad working overtime.
Yep. Bill Clinton was a regular guest at the Pedophile Palace in Palm Beach. But that part of the story is completely censored from the “reporting” of the Corrupt Liberal Media.
Bill Clinton, who some of his admirers dubbed the “First Black President” because they thought him to be persecuted by the right, is apparently also The “First White Bill Cosby”
