Re: United States v. Patricia Clarke (23-cr-00502-MAD-1)
Dear Judge D’Agostino:
I represent Patricia Clarke in the instant indictment and write today to respectfully request
an adjournment of Ms. Clarke’s sentence date which is currently scheduled for May 7, 2024, and
a concomitant adjournment of the sentencing memos due April 16, 2024. This is our first request
for a sentence adjournment. Christopher Wright who is counsel for co-defendant, William
Taylor, joins in this request and it is made with the gracious consent of the government.
I make this request partly because the U.S. Department of Probation Presentence Report
(“PSR”) is still outstanding and of course the PSR will be a vital document in our sentencing
applications. The defense is also awaiting other documents regarding our clients’ background
and character. This additional time will allow the parties to properly prepare and draft our
sentencing memos.
We therefore, respectfully request a sentence date after July 10, 2024, that works best for
the Court, except for the week of July 23, 2024 through July 30, 2024. I have advised counsel
for the government, AUSA Jonathan Reiner, regarding the instant application and the government
consents.
Sincerely,
/s/
Paul Hirsch
