UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
DISTRICT OF MAINE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
v. No. 1:21-cr-00061-LEW
NATHAN REARDON
MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE SURREPLY
CONCERNING MOTION TO RECUSE
The Government, by and through undersigned counsel, seeks leave of the Court
to file a surreply to Defendant’s “Revised Reply to Government’s Opposition to Motion
to Recuse.” Dkt. #259, June 3, 2025 (the “Reply”). The Reply states, in part:
In the October 13, 2023 hearing, Judge Walker made the following
statement on the record:
“There is people in the community who see this Court’s order, they read
about it in the papers, and then they see him just doing it. It really does
undercut the public’s trust in the court process.”
This statement is a direct admission that media coverage shaped or
reinforced the Court’s impressions of the Defendant’s conduct.
Reply at 1.
The Government seeks leave to surreply to correct Defendant’s factual
misrepresentation that the above statement was made by the Court, when, in fact, the
statement was made by the Government during its sentencing arguments. See Dkt.
#192, Final Revocation Hr’g Tr. at 7:15-10:21 (Oct. 13, 2023).
