STIPULATION AND [proposed] ORDER TO 
EXTEND SELF-SURRENDER DATE 
 
Chief Judge Kimberly J. Mueller 
 
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED and requested by and between the parties through their 
respective counsel, MATTHEW THUESEN, Assistant United States Attorney, attorney for the 
GOVERNMENT, and RACHELLE BARBOUR, attorney for Defendant, AARON ASHCRAFT, 
Defendant, that the self-surrender date set for Monday, April 6, 2023, be continued to Monday, 
May 8, 2023, by 2:00 p.m.   
Mr. Ashcraft suffers from a genetic bone disorder called Osteochondroma Exostosis.  
(PSR, para. 75.)  That disorder has caused the progressive growth of additional bone in his left 
knee.  That growth presses on nerves and blood vessels, causing pain, numbness, and difficulty 
walking.  Mr. Ashcraft is under the care of a physician for this, and surgery has been 
recommended to address it.  On April 4, 2023, Mr. Ashcraft is scheduled to undergo an MRI of 
his knee to determine a course of treatment.

 Stipulation re: Self-Surrender  - ASHCRAFT 
 
Mr. Ashcraft requests that his self-surrender date be continued a month to allow for his 
MRI results to be assessed by his doctor and to schedule surgery as soon as possible.  Mr. 
Ashcraft has notified his treatment team of his pending self-surrender and requested that his 
surgery be scheduled quickly in light of that.  Mr. Ashcraft is concerned that he will be unable to 
obtain this type of non-emergency surgery in custody and that his progressive disability will 
affect his programming if it is not addressed prior to self-surrender.
