MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
TO RESPOND TO MOTIONS IN LIMINE
This case is currently set for jury selection and trial on July 18,
2023. (Doc 187) The Court’s Criminal Trial Management Order contains
deadlines geared to that trial date, like requiring the parties to file
motions in limine on or before June 20, 2023, and any responses on or
before June 27, 2023. (Doc 187-Pg 3) On June 20, 2023, the government
filed two motions in limine. (Doc 200, Doc 201)
Undersigned counsel, who has not received or reviewed the
discovery in the case, has entered a limited notice of appearance to seek
an unopposed continuance of jury selection and trial to a date no earlier
than October 9, 2023. That motion asks the Court to set a new Criminal
Trial Management Order if it grants the requested continuance. A new
Criminal Trial Management Order, with deadlines corresponding with
Case 4:22-cr-00016-RSB-CLR Document 205 Filed 06/22/23 Page 2 of 3
a continued trial date, would permit undersigned counsel to review the
discovery, prepare for trial, and file her own and respond intelligently to
the government’s motions in limine.
Again, though, any response to the government’s motions in
limine is currently due June 27, 2023. (Doc 187-Pg 3) If the Court
grants the motion for continuance, undersigned counsel requests an
extension of time to respond to the government’s pending motions in
limine until the response time set by the new Criminal Trial
Management Order.
Respectfully submitted this 22nd day of June, 2023.
