       Katherian D. Roe, Federal Defender, moves for appointment of co-counsel in the

above-captioned matter, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3006A and the District of Minnesota’s

Criminal Justice Act Plan. The Court previously determined that Defendant in the above

matter is financially unable to employ counsel and appointed Attorney Dane DeKrey, a

member of the CJA Conflicts Panel for the District of Minnesota to represent him.

Appointed Counsel has indicated that the appointment of additional counsel is necessary

and in the interest of justice because this case is sufficiently challenging to warrant an

additional attorney. I agree with Counsel’s request of the Court.

       Appointed Counsel is requesting that based on the foregoing and on the file and

record in this case, that attorney Bruce Ringstrom, Jr. be appointed as co-counsel of

record in this matter.
