Opinion
Case No. 1:19-CR-00408-BLW
01-13-2021
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. STACY LYNN DEITCH, Defendant.
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
On January 13, 2021, Defendant Stacy Lynn Deitch appeared before the undersigned United States Magistrate Judge to enter a change of plea pursuant to a written plea agreement. (Dkt. 18.) The Defendant executed a waiver of the right to have the presiding United States District Judge take her change of plea. Thereafter, the Court explained to the Defendant the nature of the charges contained in the Indictment (Dkt. 1), the maximum penalties applicable, her Constitutional rights, the impact that the Sentencing Guidelines will have, and that the District Judge will not be bound by the agreement of the parties as to the penalty to be imposed.
The Court, having conducted the change of plea hearing and having inquired of the Defendant, counsel, and the government, finds there is a factual basis for the Defendant's guilty plea, that she entered it voluntarily and with full knowledge of the consequences, and that the plea should be accepted. The undersigned also ordered a pre-sentence investigation to be conducted and a report prepared by the United States Probation Office.
RECOMMENDATION
NOW THEREFORE IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED:
1) The District Court accept Defendant Stacy Lynn Deitch's plea of guilty to Count Four of the Indictment (Dkt. 1).
2) The District Court GRANT, at the appropriate time, the United States' motion to dismiss Counts One, Two, and Three of the Indictment (Dkt. 1) as to Defendant.
3) The District Court continue Defendant's release pending sentencing, subject to the standard and additional conditions of release previously imposed in the Order Setting Conditions of Release (Dkt. 9).
Written objections to this Report and Recommendation must be filed within fourteen (14) days pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and Local Rule 72.1(b), or as a result of failing to do so, that party may waive the right to raise factual and/or legal objections to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. DATED: January 13, 2021
