STIPULATION AND ORDER FOR CONSOLIDATED ANCILLARY HEARING AND BRIEFING SCHEDULE

JOHN A. MENDEZ, District Judge.

The United States of America through its undersigned counsel, Kevin C. Khasigian, Assistant United States Attorneys, and counsel for Petitioner National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, Pa. ("National Union"), Katherine Musbach, respectfully request that the Court schedule a consolidated ancillary hearing on Petitioner's filings [ECF Nos. 80 and 107] for March 31, 2020 at 9:15 a.m. Subject to the Court's approval, the United States and Petitioner National Union further propose the following briefing schedule: the Government to respond 14 days prior to the ancillary hearing, and Petitioner to reply no later than 7 days thereafter. The ancillary hearing date extension is requested to accommodate the parties' ongoing negotiations concerning the forfeited sums. It is further understood that defendant Paul Fournier requires a brief extension to his scheduled sentencing date and therefore this extension will appropriately coordinate the two proceedings. This is a multi-defendant case involving various seized assets and potential third party interests, thus the above request will allow the parties to coordinate ancillary proceedings for any assets forfeited from co-defendants in this case.

WHEREFORE, based on the foregoing, and for good cause shown, the United States and Petitioners hereby stipulate that the ancillary hearing be scheduled on March 31, 2020 at 9:15 a.m., the Government to respond 14 days prior, and Petitioner to reply 7 days following any opposition.

ORDER

IT IS SO ORDERED.
