STIPULATION TO CONTINUE SENTENCING HEARING (FIRST REQUEST)

HONORABLE ANDREW P. GORDON UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT JUDGE

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between, Jason Frierson, United States Attorney, District of Nevada, K. Nicholas Portz, Special Assistant United States Attorney (“SAUSA”) representing the United States of America, and Rene L. Valladares, Federal Public Defender, and Benjamin Nemec, Esq., representing Defendant Tommy Gholson, that the Sentencing Hearing currently scheduled for January 10, 2023, in the above captioned matter, be vacated and continued for no less than two weeks to a date and time to be set by this Honorable Court.

This stipulation is entered into for the following reasons:

1. The undersigned counsel for government's SAUSA position concludes on January 9, 2023. At that time, this case will be reassigned to another attorney for the government who will require additional time to become familiar with the case in order to file the appropriate memoranda prior to sentencing as well as to prepare for argument at sentencing. Undersigned counsel has discussed the scheduling conflict with defense counsel and the parties have agreed to a short continuance to provide appropriate time for new government counsel to prepare for sentencing.

2. Defendant is out of custody and does not object to continuing the sentencing hearing.

3. The parties agree to the continuance.

This is the first request for a continuance of the sentencing hearing.

ORDER

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the sentencing hearing currently scheduled for January 10, 2023, be vacated, and continued to January 31, 2023 at 1:30 p.m. in Las Vegas Courtroom 6C.
