UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. ARUN DHAVAMANI
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Pending before the court is defendant's letter-form motion for court-appointed counsel to aid him in filing an appeal and a habeas corpus petition. (ECF No. 91.) Defendant has not yet been sentenced, and his sentencing hearing is scheduled for May 11, 2020. (See ECF No. 90.) Because defendant has not yet been sentenced, he is not able to appeal his sentence or file a petition for writ of habeas corpus. Accordingly, the court DENIES defendant's motion without prejudice.
The court does not construe defendant's letter as a motion to replace his current counsel for his sentencing hearing. --------
The Clerk is directed to send a copy of this Memorandum Opinion and Order to defendant, counsel of record, and the Probation Office of this court.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 3rd day of April, 2020.
