DEFENDANTS’ JOINT MOTION TO CONTINUE
THE HEARING DATE WITH ASSENT BY THE
GOVERNMENT
Now come the Defendants jointly and request a continuance for the evidentiary hearing
from April 10, 2026 until April 27, 2026, or another date that is convenient with the Court and
the parties. The Government assents to the request.
As reason therefore, the Defendant states the following:
1. The Defendant is charged with conspiracy to distribute and possession with intent to
distribute controlled substances in violation of 21 USC § 846, 21 USC § 841(a)(1), and aiding
and abetting in violation of 18 USC §2 .
2. The hearing date for evidentiary motions was originally set by the parties and the
Court at the Initial Pretrial Conference on December 12, 2026, and scheduled to begin on
April 3, 2026.
3. The Court notified the parties on February 24, 2026 of the date change for the motion
hearing from April 3, 2026 to April 10, 2026.
4. Counsel for Damien Hunt has a previously scheduled vacation and is unable for that
week. Counsel for Adika Manigo has a previously scheduled sentencing hearing for that same
date and time and is likewise unavailable.
5. After conferring with all parties, it appears the parties are available for a hearing on
April 27, 2026.
6. The Defendant and co-defendants agree to waive the time between the schedule hear-
