                                         REGULAR SENTENCING ORDER

          (1)         On or before December 22, 2022 (not more than 40 days from the date of this order), the

Probation Officer shall provide the initial draft of the presentence report to counsel for the

Defendant for review with the Defendant. If the Defendant is in pretrial detention, defense counsel

may not provide a copy of the recommendations section of the presentence report to the Defendant

in advance of meeting to review the presentence report, and may not leave the recommendations

section of the presentence report with the Defendant once the review has taken place. The

Probation Officer shall also provide the initial draft of the presentence report to counsel for the

Government.

          (2)         On or before January 5, 2023 (not less than 14 days from date in paragraph 1), counsel

shall submit, in writing, to the Probation Officer and opposing counsel, any objections to any

material information, sentencing classifications, advisory sentencing guideline ranges, or policy

statements contained in or omitted from the report.

          (3)         After receiving counsel’s objections, the Probation Officer shall conduct any

necessary further investigation and may require counsel for both parties to meet with the Probation

Officer to discuss unresolved factual and legal issues. The Probation Officer shall make any

revisions to the presentence report deemed proper, and, in the event that any objections made by

counsel remain unresolved, the Probation Officer shall prepare an addendum setting forth those

objections and any comment thereon.

          (4)        On or before January 17, 2023 (not less than 11 days from date in paragraph 2), the

Probation Officer shall file the report (and any revisions and addendum thereto) through CM/ECF.

          (5)        If counsel for either party intends to call any witnesses at the sentencing hearing,

counsel shall submit, in writing, to the Court and opposing counsel, on or before January 12, 2023

(not less than 14 days before sentencing), a statement containing (a) the names of the witnesses, (b) a

synopsis of their anticipated testimony, and (c) an estimate of the anticipated length of the hearing.

          (6)        Sentencing memoranda are not required unless a party intends to request a sentence

outside the advisory guidelines range on the basis of a non-guideline factor. If submitted, they

shall be filed with the Clerk and a copy delivered to chambers on or before January 12, 2023 (not

less than 14 days before sentencing).              Opposing or responding memoranda are not required. If

submitted, they shall be delivered to chambers on or before January 19, 2023 (not less than 7 days

before sentencing). Copies of all memoranda must be sent to the Probation Officer. Sentencing

memoranda are not sealed documents. If the memoranda or attachments contain sensitive material,

they should be filed under seal and accompanied by a motion to seal.

          (7)        If the Government intends to seek restitution, a memorandum requesting restitution

and all supporting documentation shall be filed on or before January 12, 2023 (not less than 14 days

before sentencing). Failure to provide the restitution information or an explanation for why the

restitution information is not yet ascertainable by this date may result in an order to show cause

why the information could not have been timely provided and may result in the Court denying or

delaying restitution until after a hearing not to exceed 90 days after sentencing.

          (8)        Sentencing shall be on January 26, 2023 at 2:00 p.m.

          (9)        The presentence report, any revisions, and any proposed findings made by the

Probation Officer in the addendum to the report shall constitute the tentative findings of the Court

under section 6A1.3 of the sentencing guidelines. In resolving disputed issues of fact, the Court

may consider any reliable information presented by the Probation Officer, the Defendant, or the

Government, and the Court may issue its own tentative or final findings at any time before or

during the sentencing hearing.

          (10)       Nothing in this Order requires the disclosure of any portions of the presentence

report that are not disclosable under Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure 32.
