Accordingly, the court entered an order instructing plaintiff United States of America ("the government") to submit "an appropriate notice or motion regarding the stay of proceedings in this matter." Id.
In response, the government filed the instant motion to stay proceedings until after defendant William Waller's ("defendant") sentencing hearing, which is currently scheduled for August 12, 2019.
