PRELIMINARY ORDER OF FORFEITURE
Before the Court is the United States' Motion for a Preliminary Order of Forfeiture. (Doc. 208). On February 7, 2024, following a three-day trial, a jury found the defendant guilty of Counts One and Two of the Indictment. The government now seeks a preliminary order forfeiting an Alcatel 4052z cell phone (IMEI: 015565004224072), containing a 16 Gigabyte S.D. card. See 18 U.S.C. § 2253; Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(b)(2).
