Case No. 16-20082

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION CONCERNING PLEA OF GUILTY
The United States of America and the Defendant having both filed a written consent, appeared before me pursuant to Rule 11, FED. R. CRIM. P. and CDIL Rule 72.1(A)(24). The Defendant entered a plea of guilty to Counts 1 and 2 of the Indictment and agreed to the forfeiture of items described in the notice of forfeiture.
After cautioning and examining the Defendant under oath concerning each of the subjects mentioned in Rule 11, I determined that the guilty plea was knowing and voluntary as to each charge, and that the offenses charged are supported by an independent factual basis containing each of the essential elements of said offense. I therefore recommend that the plea of guilty be accepted, that a pre-sentence investigation and report be prepared, and that the Defendant be adjudged guilty and have sentence imposed accordingly.
Failure to file written objections to this Report and Recommendation within 14 days from the date of its service shall bar an aggrieved party from attacking such Report and Recommendation before the assigned United States District Judge. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B).
ENTERED this 27th day of August, 2019
