COURT CLERK:  Item 5.  20-579.  United States of 
America versus Edvard Paronyan.  
Counsel, please state your appearances for 
the record. 
MS. AHN:  Good morning, Your Honor.  Catherine 
Ahn, Scott Paetty, Christopher Fenton and Brian Faerstein. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  Good morning, Your Honor.  Michael 
Freedman on behalf Mr. Paronyan who's present with me. 
THE COURT:  Okay.  There are some people mulling 
around in the back of the courtroom.  Would they either take 
a seat or leave.  
This is the time for sentencing.  
Has the defendant read the Presentence 
Report?  
MR. FREEDMAN:  Yes, Your Honor, he has. 
THE COURT:  And as the first matter, there is the 
question of whether the Guidelines have been correctly 
calculated.  
The argument by you, Mr. Freedman, is that 
putting him in Criminal History 3 in light of the rationale 
overstates the seriousness of his history as a first -- as

a -- 
In order to make the Court's thinking 
clearer, or clearly stated, the Court agrees with the 
probation department that the Guidelines have been correctly 
stated.  
But under the Guidelines, the Court has some 
discretion to consider whether the Guidelines have been 
overstated.  The calculation into criminal history 3 is based 
on, in part, on his violation of probation for the DUI 
conviction.  
The Guidelines give some examples of where a 
Court can exercise discretion.  In the Court's view, they 
don't precisely fit this situation, but it's my view that I 
have some discretion in the matter based in part on the 
Court's own experience with those who are in Category 3 and 
lesser categories.  
So, I'm going to consider a Category 2, which 
I think, given offense level 16 would put him in the 24 to 
30-month range.  
Is that true?  Am I correct in that regard?  
MS. AHN:  Yes, Your Honor, that is correct. 
THE COURT:  And the difference would be 
Category 3 -- he would be 27 to 33 months, if I am correct. 
MS. AHN:  That is correct, Your Honor. 
THE COURT:  For purposes of beginning your

argument, I know that's not your recommendation, Mr. 
Freedman, but that at least is the starting point.  He's in 
criminal history 2, and the range is 24 to 30 months.  
Having said that, I'll hear from you and/or 
Mr. Paronyan. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  Yes, Your Honor.  Would you like us 
to approach the lectern?  
THE COURT:  Yes.  
MR. FREEDMAN:  Good morning, Your Honor.  Thank 
you.  My client would like to address the Court -- 
THE COURT:  I'll give him that full opportunity, 
but first I'd like to hear from you. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  I agree, obviously, with the 
Court's consideration as Category 2 is the more appropriate 
one here.  I also think that the base offense level should be 
adjusted downward based on the mitigating role of this 
defendant which I laid out in detail in the brief.  I'm happy 
to address the Court's questions. 
THE COURT:  When you say mitigating, can you 
explain that further in terms of how the Guidelines address 
"mitigating"?  
MR. FREEDMAN:  Yes, Your Honor.  The Guidelines, I 
think, fit this case.  As the Court is well aware, there's 
numerous defendants, eight, in the case; and the bulk of the 
case that was presented at trial involved far more egregious

conduct than my client, Mr. Paronyan. 
THE COURT:  Not all.  I mean, there were some 
defendants who were more egregiously involved, and of course 
I presided at the trial, so I'm well aware of the evidence 
and so forth. 
But there are other defendants who are 
similarly situated to this defendant, and if I'm not 
mistaken, there is at least one or maybe more who just 
provided false information for loans, but with Mr. Paronyan, 
he did more.  He contributed to the money laundering.  And if 
I remember correctly, even though he received a certain 
loan -- about a 150,000, the evidence showed that he, through 
some convoluted transactions, transferred much of it back to 
Tamara Dadyan. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  Your Honor, I believe, first of 
all -- 
THE COURT:  Is that correct?  
MR. FREEDMAN:  There is a few -- 
MS. AHN:  He transferred, I believe, $150,000 to 
Marietta Terabelian, Your Honor.  
THE COURT:  To Marietta Terabelian, yes, that's 
correct. 
Go ahead. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  Your Honor, first of all, with 
respect to the Court's rough analysis of the culpability of

the defendants, I still think that even in the Court's view 
Mr. Paronyan is quite at the low end in terms of culpability. 
THE COURT:  I mean, doesn't the sentencing range 
reflect that?  I mean, some of the other defendants probably, 
even though I haven't seen the guideline calculation, knowing 
from prior experience, their sentencing ranges are many, 
multiple times greater than his.  
So, I mean, this is a serious violation, and 
he's in a 24 to 30-month window, and it doesn't appear to me 
that that is not reflective of his role in the case.  
MR. FREEDMAN:  Your Honor, I'm not disagreeing 
with that analysis, but I would just respond to the Court's 
earlier point.  At least with respect to the money 
laundering, Mr. Paronyan -- as the Court I think reasoned in 
not accepting the first Plea Agreement -- that Mr. Paronyan 
doesn't deny responsibility and doesn't deny that it was an 
improper purpose to give that money to Marietta Terabelian.  
His understanding of it, though, was as a loan, and as the 
Court pointed out, that was not sufficient to meet the 
elements of the money laundering -- 
THE COURT:  It was a loan from whom?  
MR. FREEDMAN:  From Dr. Mr. Paronyan.  And he 
admits that it was improper, he -- 
THE COURT:  I don't -- 
Under the circumstances of this case and the

evidence, I just think that's not true.  That's just not 
true.  It's not believable. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  Your Honor, I think that there is a 
wide range of departures, and I do think that even if the 
Court doesn't think a mitigating role of 4 is appropriate, I 
do think that at least 2 or 3 is appropriate, given Mr. 
Paronyan's low-level role compared to the overall conduct of 
false identities and false companies which he wasn't involved 
in.  
He's prepared to address the Court in terms 
of his own wrongdoing.  But his own wrongdoing stands apart 
from the other defendants in that he had a real company with 
real employees, and he did provide false information and used 
some of the proceeds for improper purposes, but I think that 
distinction is sufficient under the Guidelines for a 
departure.  I also think that it's relevant to the 3553 
factor, which I'm happy to address if the Court would like. 
THE COURT:  Well, this is your opportunity, so 
anything you say that might be helpful to your client is 
welcome. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  Yes, Your Honor.  
So whether or not it's a minor role departure 
under the guidelines, I think it's important context for the 
Court to consider.  And as the Court can see in the 
courtroom, Mr. Paronyan's community is here to show support.

THE COURT:  He has a tremendous number of letters 
which I've read, that are appended to your pleading. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  And those letters, I think, make 
clear his circumstances and his remorse for this wrongdoing, 
and they also relate to the issue of the loan.  Because Mr. 
Paronyan, as he will explain to the Court, had a legitimate 
business with employees when the Corona virus occurred, and 
he's not in any way justifying the embellished numbers or the 
improper use, but the motivation at the outset in getting a 
PPP loan was based on the hardship that his employees were 
going to face if he had to lay them off.  And I think that's 
an important factor.  
The letters also make it clear what a pillar 
of the community he is and what a hard working family man he 
is, and really paint this conduct as an aberration in his 
life, which is further demonstrated by the remorse that he's 
already shared with me on numerous occasions.  
He's wanted to take responsibility from the 
beginning of this case.  He's here for sentencing.  All of 
that stance him, I think, in great contrast to some of the 
other defendants who have denied responsibility, who have 
even fled in certain instances.  
Mr. Paronyan takes responsibility for his 
wrongdoing, but it's an aberration in his life, and he has 
shared that remorse with numerous members of the communities

already, trying to help them avoid the mistakes that he's 
made. 
The mistake that he's made is particularly 
catastrophic for him because he's not a citizen and he faces 
almost certain deportation as a result of that.  And I think 
that's probably the most important factor for the Court's 
consideration under the 3553(a) factors, is that form of 
punishment is really quite severe, and that's a form of 
punishment that the Court can look at in deciding whether a 
lengthy prison sentence is necessary. 
Mr. Paronyan has recognized that fact all 
along, and his decision to take responsibility for his 
conduct and to make restitution and all of that is in light 
of that hanging over his head.  
But that's an extremely severe consequence 
that is -- again, puts him apart from the other defendants in 
this case, almost all of whom are citizens.  
And so to the Court's point, it's not exactly 
an apples-to-apples comparison of the guidelines to the 
guidelines to the guidelines because Mr. Paronyan has a far 
more -- or an equally serious form of punishment that is 
remaining for him after the term of imprisonment. 
And so I think whether it's under the 
Guidelines through a minor role or whether it's through the 
3553(a) factors, a 24 to 30-month sentence is more than is

necessary to punish Mr. Paronyan in light of the punishment 
he's going to receive with deportation as well as his 
circumstances and his role in this offense.  
THE COURT:  All right.  Thank you, Mr. Freedman. 
Mr. Paronyan, this is your opportunity to 
address the Court. 
THE DEFENDANT:  Good morning, Your Honor.  
First I want to apologize to the Court, to 
the government, to friends, families, especially to my wife 
and kids that I've been through this the past eight months.  
I know my mistake.  I made it.  I'm not going 
to deny it.  
Before the pandemic happened, everything was 
perfectly fine in my life.  When the pandemic happened, I 
panicked a little bit because I didn't want to let my 
employees go, even though, yes, the application -- we lied, 
we said we had 11 employees instead of five.  I take that 
responsibility.  But for my defense, I don't want to say -- 
goes under my name, under my corporation's name.  I didn't -- 
it wasn't a run-away with that money.  It was under my 
information.  I was going to pay that money back regardless.  
That's my -- I just want to clear that out.  
I mean, I know what I've done is wrong.  I 
want to pay for it.  I understand that.  And -- if you can 
please have -- just -- uh -- please take it out -- take it

easy on me, I need to stay out of -- pay that money back, go 
with the immigration.  That would be great.  
THE COURT:  Paul. 
(Discussion off the record.) 
THE COURT:  Any legal cause why sentence should 
not now be imposed?  
MR. FREEDMAN:  No, Your Honor. 
THE COURT:  All right.  
MS. AHN:  No, Your Honor. 
THE COURT:  Thank you.  
Pursuant to the Sentencing Reform Act of 
1984, it is the judgment of the Court that the defendant, 
Edvard Paronyan, is hereby committed on Count Six of the 
First Superseding Indictment to the custody of the Bureau of 
Prisons for a term of 30 months. 
Upon release from imprisonment, defendant 
shall be placed on supervised release for a term of three 
years under the following terms and conditions:  One, to 
comply with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Probation 
and Pretrial Services order and Second Amended General Order 
20-04.  
He shall pay the special assessment and 
restitution in accordance with this judgment.  
He shall cooperate in the collection of a DNA 
sample.

Is there any evidence of drug abuse?  I 
didn't see any in the -- 
I'm not going to include the drug component.  
He shall comply with the immigration rules 
and regulations of the United States; and if deported from 
this country either voluntarily or involuntarily, not reenter 
the United States illegally.  
He's required to report to the Probation or 
Pretrial Services Office while outside the United States 
within 72 hours of release from any custody or any reentry to 
the United States during the period of Court ordered 
supervision.  That reporting should be to the probation 
office in this courthouse.  
He shall not obtain or possess any form of 
identification other than that in his true legal name.  
He shall apply all moneys received from tax 
refunds, lottery winnings, inheritances, judgments, and any 
other financial gains to the Court ordered obligations.  
He shall submit his personal property, house, 
residence, vehicle, papers, other areas under his control to 
a search conducted by a U.S. Probation Officer or a law 
enforcement officer.  Failure to submit to a search may be 
grounds for a revocation.  He shall warn any other occupants 
that the premises may subject to searches pursuant to this 
condition.

Any search pursuant to this condition will be 
conducted at a reasonable time and in a reasonable manner 
upon reasonable suspicion that defendant has violated the 
condition of -- a condition of supervised release and the 
areas to be searched contain evidence of a violation. 
He's ordered to pay a special assessment of 
$100.  
He's ordered to make restitution in the 
amount of a $130,187 to Celtic Bank; $299,900 to the United 
States Small Business Administration.  
A partial payment of $15,000 shall be paid 
immediately.  
Restitution shall be due during the period of 
imprisonment at the rate of not less than $25 per quarter 
pursuant to the Federal Bureau of Prisons Inmate Financial 
Responsibility Program.  If any amount remains unpaid after 
release from custody, nominal payments of 10 percent of his 
gross monthly income but not less than $500, whichever is 
greater, shall be made during the period of supervised 
release and shall begin 90 days after the commencement of 
supervision.  
The justification for the sentence is the 
Court's calculation of the guidelines.  I have done that, and 
I have concluded the calculation should be 24 to 30 months, 
not 27 to 33 months as the report indicates for the reasons I

stated. 
I have also considered the sentencing factors 
under 3553(a) for Title 18.  And this sentence is necessary 
to reflect the seriousness of the offense, to promote respect 
for the law and to provide just punishment for the offense, 
to afford adequate deterrence to criminal conduct and to 
protect the public from further crimes of this defendant. 
I've considered other sentences available, 
and in the Court's view, having had an -- a thorough 
education as to the facts of this case from the trial and 
from the factual basis, the Court is satisfied that this is 
the most appropriate sentence.  That's the sentence.  
I'll give him 30 days to self-surrender to 
the designated institution.  
MR. FREEDMAN:  Your Honor, could I ask for a 
recommendation that he be designated to a facility in 
Southern California?  
THE COURT:  Yes, I will make that recommendation. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  And then, finally, could I ask for 
an order that once he's surrendered, his Green Card may be 
returned to me and that his bond be exonerated at that time. 
THE COURT:  What would you do with his Green Card?  
MR. FREEDMAN:  I will either hold onto it or make 
arrangements to give it back to his wife.  So if the Court 
wants to order it to me or his wife, that's what I would do.

I surrendered it for him when he was first arrested. 
THE COURT:  What's the government's position on 
the Green Card?  
MS. AHN:  As long as it happens after he is 
remanded into custody, we have no -- 
THE COURT:  I see.  Then, I'll follow your 
suggestion.  And the bond will be exonerated upon surrender. 
MR. FREEDMAN:  Thank you, Your Honor.   
THE COURT:  Oh, yes, and any -- as a -- 
MS. AHN:  Your Honor, the government moves to 
dismiss the remaining counts of the indictment. 
THE COURT:  I'll grant that motion. 
There is one other condition of supervised 
release, and that should be that he submits to a DNA test. 
MS. AHN:  Yes, Your Honor.  I believe Your Honor 
ordered that. 
THE COURT:  I see.  All right.
