Devices in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1029(a)(2) as charged in Count 33 of the Indictment.
JUDGMENT The Court asked whether there was any reason why judgment should not be pronounced. Because no sufficient cause to the
AND PROB/ contrary was shown, or appeared to the Court, the Court adjudged the defendant guilty as charged and convicted and ordered
COMM that: Pursuant to the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984, it is the judgment of the Court that the defendant is hereby committed to
ORDER the custody of the Bureau of Prisons to be imprisoned for a term of 36 months. This term consists of 36 months on each of
Counts 1 and 33, to be served concurrently.
Upon release from imprisonment, the defendant shall be placed on supervised release for a term of 2 years. This
term consists of 2 years on each of Counts 1 and 33, all such terms to run concurrently under the following
terms and conditions:
1. The defendant shall comply with the rules and regulations of the United States Probation &

USA vs. Reginald Foster, Jr Docket No.: 2:24-cr-00367-MCS-1
6. The defendant shall submit the defendant's person, property, house, residence, vehicle, papers, or
other areas under the defendant's control, to a search conducted by a United States Probation
Officer or law enforcement officer. Failure to submit to a search may be grounds for revocation.
The defendant shall warn any other occupants that the premises may be subject to searches
pursuant to this condition. Any search pursuant to this condition will be conducted at a reasonable
time and in a reasonable manner upon reasonable suspicion that the defendant has violated a
condition of his supervision and that the areas to be searched contain evidence of this violation.
It is ordered that the defendant shall pay to the United States a special assessment of $200, which is due
immediately. Any unpaid balance shall be due during the period of imprisonment, at the rate of not less than
$25 per quarter, and pursuant to the Bureau of Prisons' Inmate Financial Responsibility Program.
It is ordered that the defendant shall pay restitution pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3663A. The amount of restitution
ordered shall be paid as follows:
Victim Amount
California Employment Development Department $1,506,728
Restition shall be due during the period of imprisonment at a rate of not less than $20 per quarter and pursuant
to the Bureau of Prisons Inmate Responsibility Program. If any amount of restitution remains unpaid after
release from custody, nominal monthly payments of at least 10% of defendant's gross income, but not less than
$100, whichever is greater, shall be made during the period of supervised release and shall begin 90 days after
the commencement of supervision. Nominal restitution payments are ordered as the Court finds that the
defendant's economic circumstances do not allow for either immediate or future payment of the amount ordered.
The defendant shall be held jointly and severally liable with co-participants, Shelece Counts and Isaiah Herbert
Lawrence (Docket No. 2:24CR00367) to the extent that said co-participants are determined liable for the same
victim losses ordered in this judgment. The victims' recovery is limited to the amount of their loss and the
defendant's liability for restitution ceases if and when the victim receives full restitution.
Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3612(f)(3)(A), interest on the restitution ordered is waived because the defendant does
not have the ability to pay interest. Payments may be subject to penalties for default and delinquency pursuant
to 18 U.S.C. § 3612(g).
Pursuant to Guideline § 5E1.2(a), all fines are waived as the Court finds that the defendant has established that
he is unable to pay and is not likely to become able to pay any fine.
The Court has found that the property identified in the preliminary order of forfeiture is subject to forfeiture.
The preliminary order is incorporated by reference into this judgment and is final.
On Government's motion, all remaining counts ORDERED dismissed.
Defendant advised of his right to appeal.
