               Re: United States v. Juan Carlos Castro Gonzalez
                   Case No.: 22 Cr. 210 (PAE)

       Dear Judge Engelmayer:

               This office represents Juan Carlos Castro Gonzalez, the defendant in the above
       referenced matter, which is scheduled for sentencing on Friday December 2, 2022. I write to
       respectfully request an adjournment of sentencing as I will be engaged in a two defendant
       Felony Murder case before Justice Mandelbaum in the Manhattan Supreme Court from
       November 28th through the week of December 19th. I have received a letter from Justice
       Mandelbaum directing that I not become engaged in any matter which will prevent my
       participation or appearance in the matter of People v. Francisco and Rivas-Grullon,. There have
       been no prior requests for adjournment of sentencing made in this case. We request a date in
       early January, at the Court’s convenience, for sentencing in this matter.
               AUSA Olga I. Zverovich has been advised and consents to this request. The Court’s
       consideration is respectfully appreciated. Thank you.

                                                          Yours truly,
                                                          John Russo
                                                          John L. Russo
       JLR:mn
