Letter to Judge Kiel Re: United States v. Mendel Deutsch, 1:24-CR-00528 (ESK-2) (Dkt. 141, D.N.J.)

Summary

In this February 12, 2026 letter, filed as Document 141 in United States v. Mendel Deutsch, 1:24-CR-00528 (ESK-2) in the District of New Jersey, defense counsel Timothy D. Sini of Nixon Peabody LLP asks Judge Edward S. Kiel to postpone Deutsch's sentencing, then set for March 16, 2026 at 2:00 pm. The stated reason is that co-defendant Joshua Feldberger's sentencing was moved on February 3, 2026 from February 23, 2026 to May 19, 2026 after Feldberger's attorney became unavailable, and that a delay would preserve the original sentencing order. Counsel also cites the need to gather supporting documents for U.S. Probation and for the sentencing submissions. The letter states that the Government and the United States Probation Office were consulted, that all parties consent and are available in early June, and that this is the first such request.

       RE:     United States v. Mendel Deutsch, 1:24-CR-00528 (ESK-2)

Dear Judge Kiel:

      This firm represents Defendant Mendel Deutsch in the above-captioned matter. Mr.
Deutsch’s sentencing is currently scheduled for March 16, 2026 at 2:00 pm before your Honor.

        On February 3, 2026, the sentencing date of Mr. Deutsch’s co-defendant, Joshua
Feldberger, was adjourned from February 23, 2026 to May 19, 2026, due to the unavailability of
Mr. Feldberger’s attorney. Accordingly, Mr. Deutsch respectfully requests a brief adjournment of
his own sentencing date to preserve the original sentencing order. This adjournment is necessary
in part to provide counsel adequate time to collect the necessary supporting documentation in
connection with U.S. Probation’s request for information and Mr. Deutsch’s sentencing
submissions.

       This is Mr. Deutsch’s first request to adjourn his sentencing. We have conferred with the
Government and with the United States Probation Office. All parties consent to the adjournment
and are available in early June for sentencing. Thank you for your consideration of this request.


Respectfully submitted,


Timothy D. Sini
