Re: United States v. Richard Drayton, a/k/a “Rad,” S10 17 Cr. 283 (LAP)
Dear Judge Preska,
I represent Richard Drayton in the above-referenced matter pursuant to my appointment by this Court on May 13, 2025.
On June 4, 2025, following unsuccessful attempts to reach our client, we asked the Court to extend the supplemental motion filing deadline. The Court granted an extension to July 1, 2025, noting that a further extension could be sought if needed.
We spoke with Mr. Drayton today, June 25, 2025 for the first time. Following our conversation, we believe that additional research is necessary to best assist Mr. Drayton and inform the Court. Accordingly, we respectfully request an additional two-week extension, moving the July 1 deadline to July 15, 2025 or anytime thereafter convenient for the Court. Defendant's request for an extension is GRANTED.
Respectfully submitted,
Defendant may file a supplemental motion no later than /s/ David Esseks July 25, 2025. The Clerk of the Court shall close docket David Esseks number 666.
SO ORDERED.
Dated: June 25, 2025
