                        NOTIFICATION OF DOCKET ENTRY



This docket entry was made by the Clerk on Friday, May 30, 2025:


        MINUTE entry before the Honorable Manish S. Shah: Pretrial conference held. On
the government's oral motion, without objection from the defense, Count 11 of the second
superseding indictment is dismissed. For the reasons stated in open court, the
government's consolidated motions in limine, [252], are granted in part and denied in part.
No. 1 is granted in part; the fact of the Yes Bank line of credit is admissible; the remainder
of the motions are denied as premature or overbroad, with specific objections to be raised
during trial, and as moot with respect to the authenticity certifications as the parties
continue to work on stipulations. The government's motion to preclude certain
cross−examination, [261], is entered and continued. Defendant's motion for leave to admit
defense witness Jibi John's Rule 15 deposition, [254], is entered and continued to allow
for supplemental briefing on the admissibility of the deposition under Fed. R. Civ. P. 28
(via Fed. R. Crim. P. 15(e)). See e.g., Azizpur v. AAA Life Ins. Co., 2025 WL 819700, at
*1 (C.D. Cal. Feb. 27, 2025) (citing Tile Unlimited, Inc. v. Blanke Corp., 2013 WL
1668194, at *3 (N.D. Ill. Apr. 17, 2013); Menovcik v. BASF Corp., 2010 WL 4867408,
*1 (E.D. Mich. Nov. 23, 2010)). Defendant's brief is due 6/6/25. The government's
response is due 6/11/25. No written reply is permitted. Issues as to the admissibility of
testimony within the deposition remain pending. The court will circulate a marked−up
transcript by 6/10/25. For the reasons stated on the record, the defendant's motion to
reconsider, [255], is denied without prejudice to the defense renewing a request to take
depositions during the defense case−in−chief. The government's oral motion for early
return of trial subpoenas is granted. Both sides may issue trial subpoenas with early return
dates and must promptly disclose the results obtained from trial subpoenas to the other
party. By 6/5/25, the defense must disclose to the government a list of potential witnesses
that may be called in the defense case. The parties must email any corrections to the list of
names mentioned in the jury letter by noon on 6/5/25
(proposed_order_shah@ilnd.uscourts.gov). As discussed on the record, beginning 6/6/25,
counsel will make rolling morning disclosures to opposing counsel of witnesses and
exhibits. Jury selection will begin at 9:30 a.m. on June 9. The lawyers should be present
by 9:15 a.m. if there are issues to address. (mss)
