_____________________________}

CASE No. CR 05-00195 JSW

DEFENDANT’S REQUEST TO FILE

RESPONSE TO OPPOSITION TO

DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO

SUPPRESS PHYSICAL EVIDENCE ON

JULY 26, 2005: ORDER THEREON

DATE: AUGUST 4, 2005

TIME: 2:00 P.M.

COURT: Hon. JEFFREY S. WHITE

Counsel for the Defendant, WILLIAM WALLACE, Requests the Court’s

Permission to File Defendant’s Response to United States Opposition to Defendant’s

Motion to Suppress Physical Evidence.

1. On or about July 11, 2005, Susan Jerich, US Attorney in this matter and

Defense Counsel, agreed, at the Government’s request, to allow the Government to file

their Reply Brief after July 15, 2005, and entered into a Stipulation to that effect, allowing

the US to file their Reply on or before July 22, 2005. Defense Counsel Stipulated that his

Response to any Opposition would be filed on or before July 27, 2005.

2. Defense Counsel is a sole practitioner with a heavy schedule that interfered

with his ability to file his Motion in a timely manner.

3. Defense Counsel has not received, by fax nor by US Mail, the Order issued by

Case 3:05-cr-00195-JSW Document 30 Filed 07/26/2005 Page 1 of 3 Case 3:05-cr-00195-JSW Document 32 Filed 07/27/05 Page 1 of 2

the Court pursuant to this Stipulation. Therefore, Defense Counsel inadvertently

determined that his date to lodge his Response to any Opposition was to be on or before

July 27, 2005.

4. On July 26, 2005, Defense Counsel receive a telephone communication from

the Court’s clerk, informing Defense Counsel that he had missed hid filing date for any

Response to the Government’s Opposition to his Motion.

5. Defense counsel, through inadvertence, surprise and neglect failed to verify the

actual dates contained in the courts electronically filed, Order, which states that Defense

Counsel was to file his Response on or before July 25, 2005.

6. Defense Counsel humbly requests that this Court accept the late filing of his

Response to the Government’s Opposition to his Motion to Suppress Physical evidence.

Failure to allow Defense Counsel to file his client’s Response will unduly prejudice the

Defendant.

7. Defense Counsel telephoned the office of US Attorney Susan Jerich on July 26,

2005, stating that he was requesting an additional day within which to file his Response to

the Government’s Opposition. No message either in support of nor in negation of this

request has been received as of the writing of this Request.

Dated: July 26, 2005. Respectfully Submitted,
