INSTALLMENT PAYMENT AGREEMENT
MATTHEW F. LEITMAN UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
I, Keith Douglas Thomas, hereby agree as follows:
1. I shall make payments of at least $1,756.95 each month on the debt the Court ordered me to pay in this action.
2. I shall make a single installment payment of at least $1,200.00 by Friday, July 19, 2024.
3. I understand:
a. payments made by check, money order, or other certified funds are to be made payable to “Clerk, U.S. District Court”;
b. to receive credit for payments I must note on the check, money order, or other certified funds my Criminal Case No. 2:01CR80707 01;
c. payments are to be delivered directly to the Clerk of the
United States District Court at:
Clerk's Office Theodore Levin U.S. Courthouse 231 W. Lafayette, Rm 599 Detroit, MI 48226
d. payments can be made electronically at https://www.pay.gov/public/form/start/80442445 and must reference CCAM: DMIE201 CR080707001 .
4. My first installment payment of $1,756.95 shall be due on or before August 19, 2024, and shall continue on the nineteenth (19th) day of each month for twelve (12) months.
5. A Statement of Account will be sent to my last known address each month showing the application of each payment and providing the amount and due date of the next payment. A perforated coupon is attached to the bottom of each statement, addressed to the United States District Clerk. For faster processing, the coupon should be included with the payment. In the event a monthly statement and payment coupon is not received, it is still my responsibility to make my payment on time to the United States District Clerk. The coupon is sent as a courtesy reminder of the monthly obligation.
6. It is my duty to keep the United States Attorney's Office informed of any changes to my financial status and comply with all requests for this purpose. I agree and understand that I am required to keep the United States informed in writing of any material change in my financial situation or ability to pay this judgment debt and of any change in my employment or change in residence.
7. I agree and understand that, besides my regular monthly payment, the United States has submitted my debt to the Treasury for inclusion in the Treasury Offset Program for my prior default. Under this program, any federal payments I would normally receive may be offset and applied to this debt.
8. Default under this Agreement includes: (a) failure to make a payment on or before its due date; (b) failure to respond to a request for information from the United States within 30 days of the request; or (c) should I act or fail to act in any manner to hinder or delay the collection of my debt, as defined under 18 U.S.C. § 3572(i).
9. If I default under this Agreement, the United States may - at its sole discretion - move for entry of the Stipulated Agreement for Final Order of Continuing Garnishment for the remainder of my debt or any other action authorized under 18 U.S.C. § 3613.
