Case summary
This route holds 35 filing pages from two separate prosecutions, of which the case index links five. Twenty-nine are from United States v. Eric Rivera, Adrienne Ponzo and James Wessels in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, Criminal No. 24-267 (KMW): scheduling orders, orders to continue in the ends of justice, conditions of release, attorney appointments and appearances. No charging document, plea or judgment is among them, and the government's Rule 12.4 disclosure statement names KeyBank National Association and the U.S. Small Business Administration as organizational victims. Six are from United States v. Anuli Okeke in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Docket No. 22-CR-20 (FB), where a jury found the defendant guilty on all four counts in June 2024. The New Jersey case is pending as of December 5, 2025; the charges are allegations.

What did the jury find in the Eastern District of New York?
Guilty on count one, conspiracy to commit wire fraud and bank fraud, with object two, bank fraud, selected; guilty on count two, wire fraud; guilty on count three, bank fraud; and guilty on count four, money laundering conspiracy. Jury selection was held June 3, 2024 and trial began June 10, 2024 before Judge Block.
What is on the page from the New Jersey case?
Procedural orders only, running from the July 26, 2023 order setting Eric Rivera's conditions of release to a December 5, 2025 scheduling order for trial as to Rivera and Wessels. There is no indictment, information, plea agreement or judgment, so no charge, amount or outcome for those defendants can be verified from this page.
Why do two dockets sit on one route?
The filings carry two different case numbers, 1:24-cr-00267-KMW in New Jersey and 1:22-cr-00020-FB in the Eastern District of New York, and the page's own case facts record only the second. The archive's filing dates for this route are blank, so each document's date is taken from its own filing stamp.
