SUSAN RICHARD NELSON, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on Defendant Mark Edward Wetsch's "Motion in Opposition to the Schedule Regarding the Submission of Trial Documents" [Doc. No. 248], Defendant's Motion for Grand Jury Transcripts [Doc. No. 292], Defendant's "Motion Averring Perjury by Deidre Aanstad and Caroline Durham" [Doc. No. 293], Defendant's Motion for Reimbursement [Doc. No. 294], Defendant's Motion "Informing the Judiciary of Government's Failure to Serve Documents and Comply with Disclosing Discovery" [Doc. No. 299], Defendant's Motion Compelling the United States Marshal Service to Provide Dental Cleaning and Other Required Health Care Services [Doc. No. 300], and Defendant's Motion Compelling the Government to Disclose Additive Historical Bank Robbery Information [Doc. No. 302].
Defendant opposes the Court's January 15, 2013 Order [Doc. No. 230] setting this matter for trial on April 22, 2013. Defendant asks the Court to set the matter for trial on March 4, 2013. The Court has wide discretion in managing its calendar.
Defendant next asks the Court to require the Government to produce grand jury transcripts immediately. Defendant cites to Rules 12(i) and 26.2 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure as support for his motion. Rule 12(i) does not exist. Rule 26.2 requires the Government to produce "any statement that is in [its] possession [] that relates to the subject matter of the witness's testimony" after the witness testifies. Fed. R. Crim. P. 26.2;
The transcripts Defendant seeks are likely subject to disclosure pursuant to the Jencks Act and Rule 26.2, but only with regard to witnesses who testify and only after the witness testifies on direct examination. Further, this Court and Magistrate Judge Graham have already denied Defendant's nearly identical requests. (
Defendant's "motion averring perjury" is denied. As relief, Defendant asks the Court to include time previously excluded from speedy trial calculations. The Court and Magistrate Judge Graham have already addressed Defendant's allegations of misconduct by Ms. Aanstad and Ms. Durham. (Order of Nov. 16, 2013 at 7 [Doc. No. 130]; Order of Dec. 21, 2012 at 3-4 [Doc. No. 201].) This Court observed that the record does not support Defendant's claim that Ms. Aanstad or Ms. Durham had committed perjury. (Order of Dec. 21, 2012 at 3 n.1.) The relief requested—recalculation of speedy trial time—is nearly identical to the relief requested in Defendant's previous motion regarding his allegations of misconduct and perjury. Accordingly, as before, this motion is denied.
Defendant asks the Court to reimburse him for expenses associated with his defense. Magistrate Judge Graham advised Defendant that he "should seek supplies from standby counsel." (Order of Oct. 3, 2012 at 1 [Doc. No. 95].) Furthermore, as the Magistrate Judge found, Defendant has not demonstrated a need for additional supplies. (
Defendant also advises the Court that the Government has not served Defendant with certain submissions filed with the Court, other discovery pursuant to Rule 16, and historical bank robbery information in Minnesota during 2011 and 2012. The Court is not in a position to evaluate the sufficiency of the Government's actual service of documents or production of historical bank robbery information. Accordingly, the Government is ordered to comply with Magistrate Judge Graham's January 16, 2013 Order no later than March 22, 2013, to the extent it has not already done so. Further, the Government must re-serve its response to Defendant's motion concerning the monitoring of his jailhouse communications [Doc. No. 286] and the exhibits attached thereto. The Government must file an affidavit of service for its production of the bank robbery information and its response to Defendant's motion. As for other discovery pursuant to Rule 16, while the Government is reminded of its obligation to supplement any discovery, it need not produce more than one copy. Aside from the relief provided for herein, Defendant's motion is denied.
Defendant asks the Court to order the United States Marshal to provide routine teeth cleaning, a complete blood count, and a routine physical. This Court has advised Defendant that if he "wishes to raise arguments or challenges regarding his criminal case," he could file appropriate motions. (Order of Nov. 27, 2012 at 1 [Doc. No. 155].) The provision of health and dental services, while important, is irrelevant to the criminal matter currently before the Court. Defendant should follow regular healthcare and dental care procedures, just as all other pretrial detainees at Sherburne County Jail are required.
Defendant has moved to compel the Government's production of information regarding the number of bank robberies in the United States wherein the suspect was a Caucasian male wearing a black mask from January 3, 2012 to the present. Defendant argues the information is material to his defense because it will demonstrate that bank robberies by Caucasian males wearing black masks did not cease upon his incarceration on January 3, 2012. The Court finds that Defendant has established that the information sought may be material to the preparation of his defense.
Based on the foregoing, and all the files, records, and proceedings herein,
