UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, v. ROMANA LEYVA, Defendant.


ORDER

HONORABLE PAUL A. CROTTY UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

The Court has received a letter dated June 6, 2022 from the Defendant, Romana Leyva, requesting that new counsel be appointed on her behalf. The Court construes that letter as a motion. The Court has also received letters in response from Leyva's counsel and the Government, dated, respectively, July 18 and July 20, 2022.

Defense counsel and the Government are directed to publicly file these three letters on ECF, but with redactions for any personally sensitive disclosures.

Leyva's defense counsel continues to represent her on appeal and has already filed a motion in the Second Circuit to be relieved as counsel. Thus, for the reasons stated in the Government's July 20 letter, Levy a's motion is DENIED without prejudice as to its renewal in the Second Circuit. Leyva may raise such a request with the Second Circuit or file a letter regarding her counsel's pending request to be relieved.

SO ORDERED
