JPMorgan Chase alleges that its former executive Jes Staley "thwarted" its efforts to cut ties with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during his tenure at the bank.

JPMorgan has denied liability. Staley has called the accusations "baseless" but has expressed regret for his relationship with Epstein.
