UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR ORDER REQUESTING THE DEPARTMENT OF PROBATION TO PREPARE A PRE-PLEA PSI

Certification: This motion is timely filed.

Comes now the defendant, Andre Johnson, by and through his counsel of record, Brenda Weksler, Assistant Federal Public Defender, and hereby moves this court for an order requesting the department of probation to prepare a pre-plea PSI. This request is based on the Points and Authorities attached hereto.

MEMORANDUM

Undersigned has discussed the case with her client, Andre Johnson, and the different ways in which his criminal history may impact the sentence he may receive. Given the potential for Armed Career Criminal designation, undersigned respectfully requests an Order from this Court requesting the Department of Probation to prepare a "pre-plea PSI," detailing Johnson's prior convictions.1 Undersigned does not need the Department of Probation to analyze whether any of the prior convictions qualify as a "violent felony" or a "serious drug offense" under 18 U.S.C. § 924(e). Instead, what is needed is a list of all of Johnson's prior arrests that resulted in a conviction.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

FootNotes


1. Undersigned counsel has already reached out to Probation explaining the particular circumstances involved in this case, which necessitate their involvement prior to the entry of a plea in this case.
