ORDER

Pending before the Court is the Motion for Financial Assistance with Food and Lodging Expenses During Trial, (ECF No. 1928), filed by Defendant Mathew Dunlap ("Defendant").

In his Motion, Defendant represents that he resides in Reno, Nevada and will be forced to incur expenditures for lodging and food during the length of his upcoming trial in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Mot. for Financial Assistance 4:3-9, ECF No. 1928). Defendant further submits that he "cannot afford these expenses to be present during this lengthy trial. To make matters worse, [Defendant] cannot work while trial is pending, further exacerbating the financial harm. . . ." (Id. 4:9-11). Having read and considered Defendant's Motion for Financial Assistance with Food and Lodging Expenses During Trial, the Court hereby grants the Motion in part, finding that lodging expenses incurred by Defendant during trial in this matter constitute "other services necessary for adequate representation[,]" under the Criminal Justice Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3006A(e)(1).

Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendant's Motion for Financial Assistance with Food and Lodging Expenses During Trial, (ECF No. 1928), is GRANTED in part and DENIED in part. Reasonable and necessary lodging expenses incurred by Defendant during trial in this matter will be reimbursed, under the CJA upon submission and approval of CJA vouchers containing all required documentation. The Motion is denied as to food expenditures.
