UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. TONY D. WILLIAMS
CARYLL S. ALPERT, BPR #017021 Assistant Federal Public Defender Attorney for Tony D. Williams
JUDGE SHARP
MOTION TO EXTEND TIME FOR FILING PRETRIAL MOTIONS
Through counsel, defendant Tony D. Williams moves to extend the time for filing pretrial motions until two weeks prior to any trial date. This matter currently is set for trial on October 16, 2012.
In support of this motion, defense counsel would show the following: Defense counsel has received discovery in this matter, but has not yet had an opportunity to review the discovery with Mr. Williams, who is detained in Kentucky. By Local Rule, pretrial motions are due today. However, defense counsel cannot determine whether pretrial motions are appropriate or necessary until defense counsel reviews this matter thoroughly with Mr. Williams. For these reasons, the defendant moves to extend the deadline for filing a pretrial motions until two weeks prior to trial.
Respectfully submitted,
