UNOPPOSED MOTION AND
PROPOSED ORDER TO VACATE
STATUS HEARING
COMES now the defendant, ALICIA FIGUEROA-LORIE, by and through counsel, Rene L. Valladares, Federal Public Defender, and Raquel Lazo, Assistant Federal Public Defender, counsel for ALICIA FIGUEROA-LORIE, and moves this court to vacate the status hearing currently set for Monday, January 9, 2012..
This unopposed motion is filed for the following reasons:
1. The defendant, being in full compliance with the requirements of her unsupervised probation, has relocated and now resides in the state of Florida. Travel to Las Vegas, Nevada for the status hearing would create an unnecessary financial burden on the defendant.
2. The defendant has met the special conditions by completing the community service and assessment payment required of her in the Judgment filed on March 29, 2011. (See Exhibit A as attached verification)
3. Defense counsel has conferred with AUSA Rob W. MacDonald, who has stated he has no objections, as long as all conditions have been met.
