                      IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
                  FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA
                               WESTERN DIVISION

                                  Case No. 5:24-CR-00156-M

 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA                            )

        V.                                           )                      ORDER

        Defendant.                                   )


       This matter comes before the court on the Defendant's pro se motion seeking

"reconsideration of bail." DE 94. The document is dated May 6, 2025, and was filed on July 24,

2025. Id. The court held Defendant's sentencing hearing on June 26, 2025, at which Defendant

was sentenced, inter alia, to 70 months' imprisonment.        DE 83 , 84.   Defendant has been

represented by counsel throughout this action, including at the hearing and at the time he drafted

the present motion. As it has done on several prior occasions, the court reminds Defendant that

it is under no obligation to consider documents filed pro se by a represented party. See United

States v. Hammond, 821 F. App'x 203 , 207 (4th Cir. 2020) (citing McKaskle v. Wiggins , 465

U.S. 168, 183 (1984) and United States v. Carranza, 645 F. App'x 297, 300 (4th Cir. 2016)).

Typically, the court would deny such pro se request without prejudice; however, given the

posture of this case, the date of the document, and the requested relief, which seeks presentence

release, the court finds the request moot and DENIES the motion.
                                  ~
        SO ORDERED this        'ZS      day of July, 2025 .
