ORDER 377 SECOND LETTER MOTION addressed to Judge John P. Cronan from Farrukh Nuridinov dated 02/16/2023 re: staying sentence pending appeal as to Dildora Marupova. Defendant Dildora Marupova has moved to stay execution of her sentence pending appeal. Dkt. 377. As a basis for this relief, she relies on 18 U.S.C. § 3143(b). Pursuant to that provision, as relevant here, the Court "shall order that a person who has been found guilty of an offense and sentenced to a term of imprisonment, and who has filed an appeal or a petition for a writ of certiorari, be detained unless the Court finds both by clear and convincing evidence that the person is not likely to flee or pose a danger to the safety of any person or the community if released and that the appeal is not for the purpose of delay and raises a substantial question of law or fact likely to result in(i) reversal, (ii) an order for a new trial, (iii) a sentence that does not include a term of imprisonment, or (iv) a reduced sentence to a term of imprisonment less than the total of the time already served plus the expected duration of the appeal process. Defendant offers no reason for the Court to find that her appeal will raise a substantial question of law or fact that would result in any of the statutorily enumerated outcomes. To the contrary, Defendant entered what the Court found to be a knowing and voluntary plea of guilty to Count Three of the Superseding Indictment. See Dkt. 278. Further, the Court sentenced Defendant to twelve months and one day in prison, which was roughly 1/3 of the agreed-upon advisory Guidelines range of 33 to 41 months imprisonment. Dkts. 356 at 2; 278 at 19. In fact, in her plea agreement, Defendant specifically waived her right to appeal any term of imprisonment that was less than or equal to 41 months incarceration, and she confirmed that waiver at her guilty plea hearing on August 17, 2022. Dkt. 278 at 20:12-21. The Court therefore denies Defendant's motion to stay execution of her sentence.

MEMO ENDORSEMENT as to Inna Gekelman on re: 339 The Government further moves, with the consent of the defendant, for the exclusion of time under the Speedy Trial Act through any newly scheduled trial date...ENDORSEMENT...The trial currently scheduled to begin on February 27, 2023 is adjourned until July 31, 2023.

The Court also grants the Government's request to exclude time under the Speedy Trial Act until July 31, 2023. The Court finds that, pursuant to 18 USC 3161(h)(7)(A), the ends of justice served by excluding time until July 31, 2023 outweigh the interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial, by allowing time for the parties to continue plea discussions and prepare for trial (Pretrial Conference set for 7/18/2023 at 09:00 AM in Courtroom 12D, 500 Pearl Street, New York, NY 10007 before Judge John P.
