Ms. Calhoun was released into an inpatient drug and alcohol program on July 26, 2023. Counsel is informed and believes that Ms. Calhoun is in the initial “blackout” phase of her treatment and requests that she be excused from attending the arraignment on that basis.

Pursuant to Rule 10(b) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, Defendant Shannon Calhoun's personal appearance for arraignment on July 31, 2023 is excused and counsel is permitted to appear on Ms. Calhoun's behalf for arraignment.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
