REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

PHILLIP J. GREEN, Magistrate Judge.

Pursuant to W.D. MICH. L.CR.R. 11.1, I conducted a plea hearing in the captioned case on January 4, 2016, after receiving the written consent of defendant and all counsel. There is no written plea agreement. There is a two part oral agreement: (1) the government agrees not to oppose defendant Kay Mills's request for a non-custodial sentence; and (2) the parties agree that the amount of loss is $20,339.62.

At the hearing, defendant entered a plea of guilty to the single count of the indictment charging her with theft of government funds, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 641. On the basis of the record made at the hearing, I find that defendant is fully capable and competent to enter an informed plea; that the plea is made knowingly and with full understanding of each of the rights waived by defendant; that it is made voluntarily and free from any force, threats, or promises; that the defendant understands the nature of the charge and penalties provided by law; and that the plea has a sufficient basis in fact.

Accordingly, I recommend that defendant's plea of guilty to the single count of the indictment be accepted, and that the court adjudicate defendant guilty. Acceptance of the plea, adjudication of guilt, and imposition of sentence are specifically reserved to the district judge.
