IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff,

vs.

MICHAEL SCOTT COOPER,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:10-CR-00425-AWI

DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO 

FILE MOTIONS IN LIMINE AFTER DATE 

SET BY COURT 

ORDER

TO: THE ABOVE-ENTITLED COURT; UNITED STATES ATTORNEY’S OFFICE:

Pursuant to the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, Rule 12, Defendant, MICHAEL 

SCOTT COOPER, by and through his counsel, KYLE J. HUMPHREY, hereby moves the Court 

to allow the defendant to submit his motions in limine after the deadline set for filing and service 

of motions in limine. 

Counsel for the defense inadvertently mis-calendared the date set by the court for filing 

and service of motions in limine. Counsel mistakenly calendared this date for April 2, 2012, 

rather than the actual date of March 5, 2012. Therefore, counsel requests leave to file the 

defendant’s motions in limine by April 2, 2012, at 4:00 p.m.

Dated: April 2, 2012

DECLARATION OF COUNSEL IN SUPPORT OF

MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE MOTIONS IN LIMINE AFTER DATE SET BY COURT

I, KYLE J. HUMPHREY, declare as follows:

1. I am the attorney of record for the defendant, MICHAEL SCOTT COOPER.

2. I am requesting leave from the court to file the defendant’s motions in limine past the 

date set by the court. Due to inadvertence in calendaring the due date for our motions in limine, 

counsel believed the due date to be April 2, 2012, rather than the actual date, March 5, 2012. 

Counsel apologizes to the court for this mistake and for any inconvenience caused by it. 

3. The defendant’s motions in limine are complete and ready for filing. The defendant’s 

responses to the government’s motions in limine are also filed as of today’s date. Counsel 

contacted AUSA Jeremy Jehangiri on today’s date to inform him that counsel would be filing the 

defendant’s motions in limine as soon as possible.

4. Counsel anticipates being able to proceed with trial on the date currently set. The 

defendant’s motions in limine are not complex and the issues raised can still be addressed by the 

hearing on the in limine motions set for April 23, 2012. Counsel, like the court and opposing 

counsel, would like to litigate this case to finality without further delay. 

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the foregoing 

is true and correct.

Dated: April 2, 2012 Respectfully submitted,

Kyle J. Humphrey_____________
