7.   This Court's criminal docket is extremely crowded, and for purposes of docket
     management, this Court must be informed as to possible pre−trial disposition of cases
     on its docket. Therefore, pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11(e)(5) and
     the holding of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in United States v. Ellis, 47 F.2d 863
     (5th Cir. 1977), any plea bargain or plea agreement entered into by the parties in this
     cause must be made known to the Court three (3) days before FPTC. No plea bargain
     agreement entered in to after this date will be honored by the Court without good cause
     shown for the delay.

The defendant and his/her attorney must appear for the Court settings. Failure to appear may
result in additional charges being brought against the defendant.
Direct questions about this schedule to Rhonda Hawkins, Case Manager, United States
District Clerk, 515 Rusk Street, Room 8613, Houston, 77002, (713) 250-5518.

     SIGNED on December 4, 2020, at Houston, Texas.
