UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. JOSHUA FITTEN, Defendant.


ORDER

DENISE COTE, DISTRICT JUDGE

On August 24, defense counsel informed the Court that the defendant prefers that the September 10 sentencing in this matter occur via videoconference as opposed to in person. Accordingly, it is hereby

ORDERED that the conference shall proceed as scheduled via the Microsoft Teams videoconference platform, if that platform is reasonably available. To access the conference, please follow this link: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameetingYWI0MDIwYjgtYzZjYi00OWM5LTk5OTUtMDFmNTBlOTBiMz Vh%40thread.v2/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%221d66f037-8266-4d1c-919c-67c6543d3542%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%22469677da-2d61-47ae-9927-1da71a25d7a3%22%7d

To use this link, you may need to download software to use the platform's videoconferencing features. The link in this order is currently live. Participants are directed to test their videoconference setup in advance of the conference --including their ability to access the link. Defense counsel shall assist the defendant in testing the videoconference capability so that the defendant can participate by videoconference. Participants, including defense counsel, shall report any difficulties accessing the link to chambers no later than 24 hours in advance of the conference so that chambers may assist the parties.
