Re: 
United States v. Amos Mundendi 
 
21 Cr. 247 (PAE) 
 
Dear Judge Engelmayer, 
 
 
I write with the consent of the government to respectfully request a 60-day 
adjournment of Mr. Mundendi’s sentencing, currently scheduled for September 9, 
2022. My office has retained an expert to conduct an evaluation of Mr. Mundendi 
and prepare a mitigation report for use at sentencing. The expert is currently 
gathering and reviewing records related to Mr. Mundendi and requires some 
additional time. An adjournment of Mr. Mundendi’s hearing would provide our 
expert sufficient time to complete her report and would allow me to effectively 
prepare for sentencing.   
 
Thank you for your consideration of this request.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Respectfully submitted,
