Motion for Expedited Order Authorizing Psychiatric Examination — Vesel Kukaj, No. 25-mj-03510 (Dkt. 16, S.D.N.Y.)

Summary

Jeffrey Chabrowe, counsel for Vesel Kukaj, moved on March 25, 2026 in United States of America v. Vesel Kukaj (S.D.N.Y., Case 25-mj-03510-UA-1) for an expedited order authorizing a mental health examination of Kukaj by a private defense expert psychologist. The motion says the nature of the offense conduct and unique aspects of Kukaj's personal history warrant the examination, and that MDC Brooklyn requires a court order. The defense seeks to expedite the examination to facilitate discussions with the government, which does not oppose the request, the motion says. The motion ends with a "So Ordered" line for a U.S. magistrate judge dated 3/25/26.

________________________________

     MOTION FOR EXPEDITED ORDER AUTHORIZING PSYCHIATRIC EXAMINATION

Defendant Vesel Kukaj, by his counsel Jeff Chabrowe, requests this Court issue an order

authorizing a mental health examination of Mr. Kukaj by a private defense expert psychologist. The

nature of the offense conduct, and the unique aspects of Mr. Kukaj’s personal history, clearly warrant

such examination. A court order is required by MDC Brooklyn. 1 We seek to expedite this examination

to facilitate discussions between the defense and the government. The government advises it does not

oppose this request.

Dated: March 25, 2026                                Respectfully submitted,
