Opinion
Case No. 10-20257
06-08-2012
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. MELVIN BEASLEY, Defendant.
ORDER SETTING BRIEFING SCHEDULE FOR MOTION TO DISMISS
On June 7, 2012, the court held a telephone conference with counsel for the parties. During the conference, defense counsel indicated that he anticipates filing a motion to dismiss the indictment on double jeopardy grounds. Because both counsel and the court agreed not to adjourn Defendant's trial date to accommodate this motion practice, the court will set an expedited briefing schedule. Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that Defendant shall file any motion to dismiss by June 22, 2012. If such a motion is filed, the Government shall respond no later than July 3, 2012. At that time, the court will consider whether further briefing or a motion hearing will be necessary.
