JPMorgan Chase & Co. is suing Jes Staley to hold the former executive responsible for any damages stemming from lawsuits accusing the bank of facilitating Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking.

The bank on Wednesday filed a third-party complaint against Staley, once its private banking chief, in Manhattan federal court, arguing he should be held liable if allegations about his relationship with Epstein are shown to be true.
