Re: United States of America v. Ryan E. Dales, Crim. No. GLR-23-26

Dear Chief Judge Russell:

I write on behalf of the Government in the above-referenced case to respectfully request
that the Court extend the deadline for the Government to provide its trial exhibits to the defense
from October 28, 2024—the date of the pre-trial conference in this matter—to November 11, 2024.
The first trial, pertaining to the drug and firearm counts in the indictment, is set to begin on
December 2, 2024. ECF No. 64. That trial will be immediately followed by the trial pertaining to
the fraud and aggravated identity theft counts in the indictment.

Due to the press of obligations from other cases, including exhibit preparation for another
pending trial, undersigned counsel seeks a brief extension to allow the Government additional time
to finalize its exhibits. If Government counsel is in a position to provide its trial exhibits to the
defense prior to November 11, 2024, it will do so. I have conferred with counsel to Defendant
regarding this request; he does not object to it.

Accordingly, the Government respectfully requests that the Court extend the deadline for
the Government to provide its trial exhibits to the defense from October 28, 2024 to November
11, 2024

Respectfully submitted,

Erek L. Barron
United States Attorney
