`
`
`
`Defendants Jacob Bychak, Mark Manoogian, Mohammed Abdul Qayyum, and Petr
`
`Pacas (jointly, the “Defendants”) hereby jointly submit the following motion requesting
`leave to file a reply to the government’s opposition to the Defendants’ Joint Motion to
`Continue Trial [Dkt. No. 241] (the “Opposition”).
`On June 11, 2021, Defendants filed their Joint Motion to Continue Trial [Dkt.
`1.
`No. 240] (the “Motion”).
`On June 17, 2021, the government filed its Opposition [Dkt. 241]. As further
`2.
`explained in the Defendants’ proposed reply brief, the Opposition makes numerous
`assertions, which range from careless misstatements and omissions of fact to false and/or
`gross misrepresentations. Most egregious among these accusations is the government’s
`false claim that Gary S. Lincenberg, counsel for Mr. Pacas, failed to advise the Arizona
`court of the pending court trial in this criminal case. That claim is patently false. And that
`is only one of many examples of the government’s uninformed and incomplete recitation
`of facts.
`Based upon the foregoing, and to ensure that the Court’s holding is based on a
`3.
`complete set of facts, Defendants request leave to file Exhibit A for the Court’s
`consideration of the Motion.
`
`
`Dated: June 23, 2021
