UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. ALLANTE RAMONE BROWN, Defendant.
ORDER
Gregory F. Van Tatenhove United States District Judge
This matter is before the Court on the Recommendation to Accept Guilty Plea filed by United States Magistrate Judge Matthew A. Stinnett. [R. 60.] The recommendation instructed the parties to file any specific written objections within three days after being served with the decision, or else waive the right to further review. See id. at 3. Neither party has objected, and the time to do so has now passed. Upon review, the Court is satisfied that Defendant Brown knowingly and competently pled guilty to the charged offense and that an adequate factual basis supports the plea as to each essential element of the offense charged. Accordingly, the Court hereby ORDERS as follows:
1. Judge Stinnett's Recommendation to Accept Guilty Plea is ADOPTED as and for the Opinion of the Court;
2. Defendant Allante Ramone Brown is ADJUDGED guilty of Count One of the Indictment; and
Judge Stinnett's recommendation also references forfeiture. Because the United States subsequently moved for a preliminary judgment of forfeiture, the Court will rule on the matter by separate order.
3. The Defendant's Jury Trial is CANCELLED.
