Having conducted a proceeding in the form and manner prescribed by Rule 11, the Magistrate Judge recommends that the Court accept Defendant's guilty plea, reserving to the District Judge the option of rejecting the Plea Agreement if, after review of the presentence report, the agreed sentence is determined not to be the appropriate disposition of the case.
