On March 7, 2005, the court issued an Opinion and Order denying Varela's Motion. See Varela v. United States, 364 F. Supp. 2d 720 (N.D. Ill. 2005). After numerous court-granted continuances in the three instant cases over a period of nearly five years, Movants' court-appointed attorneys have failed to file any amended § 2255 Motions, or a Reply to the Government's Consolidated Response to Defendants' § 2255 Petitions. The court therefore considers this matter to be fully briefed, and the Motions are before the court.
