[EXTERNAL EMAIL] - 20-cr-00490-LDH-1 USA v. Joseph Accurso

Good morning,

District Judge LaShann DeArcy Hall has referred this case for an arraignment on indictment to Magistrate Judge Gold. Do all parties consent to proceed remotely? Is the defendant in custody or out on bond? Is an interpreter needed?

Kind regards,
Saudia Gillespie
Case Manager to
Magistrate Judge Steven M. Gold

FYI- District Judge LaShann DeArcy Hall has set a first telephonic-status conference on December 14th at 11 am 1- ; Access: 1537693.

Do all parties consent to waive speedy trial time between November 9-December 14th?

Saudia, I have a status conference at 10:30 that same day that may run into this one. If this is the court's only availability, I will get coverage from a colleague. But if not, then I would ask for a later time.

That's correct. I may be mistaken but I thought all parties agreed to conduct it on Monday November 9 at 4:30 p.m. ?

Bruce and Aida,

Following up to our call: to arrange to see the CP underlying the charges against the defendant, you can contact Special Agent who is copied here, and his phone number is It's my understanding that Special Agent is not available through 12/22 for this inspection.

Additionally, I will discuss with Special Agent the other information you asked about: the metadata associated with the files.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Best,
