JOINT STATUS REPORT
The United States of America, by and through undersigned counsel, and the Defendant,
BRIGHT BOATENG, by and through counsel, submit this joint status report. The parties state as
follows:
1. The parties have engaged in plea negotiations. The government has extended a plea offer.
2. Defense counsel has advised that the Defendant will likely accept the offer but has logistical
difficulties reaching the Defendant in a timely manner because the Defendant is serving a
state sentence at a facility located a great distance away.
3. The parties recognize that the Court set a motions deadline for August 19, 2025. The parties
do not anticipate filing motions in this matter as the parties believe the matter will resolve
through a negotiated disposition.
4. The parties will promptly notify the Court once a resolution has been reached to schedule a
Rule 11 hearing.
