In consideration of that hearing and the colloquy made by the Defendant under oath, on the record, in the presence of counsel, and the remarks of the Assistant United States Attorney, A. I make the following FINDNGS - that the Defendant understands:

[ ] I FURTHER RECOMMEND the District Court accept the Defendant's admission to Criminal Forfeiture Allegation(s) no criminal forfeiture applies
D. IT IS ORDERED:
That a Presentence Report be prepared by the U.S. Probation Office.

The Sentencing hearing will be before the United States District Judge.

Any objections must be filed within seven (7) days from the date of service of this Report and Recommendation. The shortened objection deadline is due to the request of the District Court Judge. Fed. R. Crim P. 59(b)(2) and D. Ak. L.M.R. 6(a) authorizes the court to alter the standard objection deadlines.
