JPMorgan Chase said Monday it has reached a settlement with one of late sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein’s victims, who had been suing the bank.

The bank’s litigation with the U.S. Virgin Islands in the Epstein matter remains, however. Its claims against former executive Jes Staley, who was friends with Epstein, are also active, the bank said.

The announcement comes more than a week after JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon gave a deposition in the Epstein cases. On Friday, the Epstein victim, called Jane Doe 1 in documents, asked the court to reopen Dimon’s deposition.
