`
`
`
`The United States makes this request for the following reasons:
` SAUSA Boyle is an Assistant United States Attorney in the Central District
`of California, and represents the United States in a parallel civil forfeiture
`case to this action, United States of America v. $1,546,076.35 In Bank Funds
`Seized from Republic Bank of Arizona Account 1889, et al., C.D.Cal Case
`No. 2:18-cv-08420-RGK-PJW. Due to the substantial factual overlap
`between these parallel matters, SAUSA Boyle also represents the
`government in this action.
` SAUSA Boyle resides in Los Angeles, California, and one of SAUSA
`Boyle’s family members is currently quarantining pursuant to COVID-19
`prevention protocols, making travel to this District for the December 3, 2021
`hearing impractical.
` No defendant has opposed this request.
`CONCLUSION
`The United States respectfully requests that the Court permit SAUSA Boyle to
`appear by telephone or videoconference at the currently scheduled December 3, 2021
`hearing on defendants’ Motion to Dismiss.
`Respectfully submitted this 30th day of November, 2021.
