ORDER GRANTING GOVERNMENT'S MOTION IN LIMINE RE: STATEMENTS OR ARGUMENTS BY COUNSEL INCONSISTENT WITH DEFENDANT'S ADMISSIONS

THE COURT has reviewed the materials relating to the government's Motion in Limine re: Statements or Arguments by Counsel Inconsistent with Defendant's Admissions. The defendant has elected not to respond to this motion. The Court finds that the motion (Dkt. #360) should be GRANTED. The Court hereby adopts the following procedures to address instances in which the government believes defense counsel has violated the Court's prior ruling:

1) Government counsel shall object as follows: "Objection, violation of pre-trial ruling";

2) Outside the presence of the jury (either at sidebar or with the jury excused) the government shall present the specific factual admissions it believes defense counsel has contradicted, defense may present any arguments in reply, and the Court shall rule on objection;

3) Should the Court sustain the objection, the jury will be instructed to disregard defense counsel's statement (relevant to the question asked).
