STIPULATION AND ORDER FOR ANCILLARY HEARING AND ASSOCIATED BRIEFING SCHEDULE

JOHN A. MENDEZ, District Judge.

The United States of America through its undersigned counsel, Nirav K. Desai and Kevin C. Khasigian, Assistant United States Attorneys, and counsel for Petitioner National Union Fire Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, Pa. ("National Union"), Matthew S. Foy and Michael A. Pursell, respectfully request that the Court schedule the ancillary hearing on Petitioner's filing [ECF No. 80] for April 10, 2018 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 Defendant Fournier's April 10, 2018 sentencing hearing, and Petitioner to reply no later than 7 days thereafter. The ancillary hearing date and associated briefing schedule are requested to sync the ancillary litigation and Defendant Fournier's sentencing. Additionally, 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 April 10, 2018 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.
