Attorneys for Plaintiff 

United States of America 

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 

 Plaintiff, 

 v. 

IMAN DAILEY, 

 Defendant. 

CASE NO. 2:13-CR-00118-KJM 

STIPULATION REGARDING MARITAL 

PRIVILEGE BRIEFING; [PROPOSED] ORDER 

STIPULATION 

Plaintiff United States of America (the “government”), by and through its counsel of record, and 

Selena Dailey, by and through her counsel of record, hereby stipulate as follows: 

1. On January 15, 2020, the government caused Ms. Dailey to be served with a subpoena to 

appear as a witness in a preliminary hearing in the above captioned matter to revoke Iman Dailey’s (the 

“offender”) supervised release. This preliminary hearing was originally set for January 17, 2020. (See 

ECF No. 36.) 

2. Prior to the preliminary hearing on January 17, 2020, Ms. Dailey’s counsel informed the 

government that Ms. Dailey intended to invoke the adverse spousal testimony privilege not to testify 

during the hearing. 

3. The Court granted the parties’ joint request for additional time to submit briefs on the 

contested issue of whether the Court could compel Ms. Dailey to testify during the preliminary hearing

despite her invocation of the adverse spousal testimony privilege. (ECF No. 42.) The Court also 

continued the preliminary hearing for one week, to January 24, 2020. (ECF No. 42.) 

4. On January 20, 2020, Ms. Dailey’s counsel informed counsel for the government that Ms. 

Dailey’s mother had just tragically passed away. 

5. The government does not wish to exacerbate Ms. Dailey’s grief by moving to compel her 

to testify during the preliminary hearing in her husband’s supervised release revocation proceeding only 

days following the death of her mother. Additionally, the government’s position remains unchanged 

that the evidence establishes probable cause to believe that the offender violated the terms of his 

supervised release even if Ms. Dailey does not testify at the preliminary hearing. (See ECF No. 41.) 

6. The government is prepared to proceed to a preliminary hearing on the supervised release 

violation petition in this matter on January 24, 2020, and is not requesting a further continuance of that 

hearing. The government reserves its right to move to compel Ms. Dailey to testify as a witness during 

subsequent proceedings in this matter. 

7. However, because the government will not call Ms. Dailey to testify at the preliminary 

hearing set for January 24, 2020, the spousal testimony privilege issue that was to be briefed by the 

government and Ms. Dailey is no longer ripe for the Court’s consideration.

8. Accordingly, by this stipulation and applicable only to the preliminary hearing in this 

matter currently set for January 24, 2020, the government and Ms. Dailey jointly request that the Court 

enter an order vacating the briefing schedule previously set by the Court. (See ECF No. 42.) 

IT IS SO STIPULATED.
