SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 10 – Justin Sanjurjo was
arrested in The Bronx on June
1 with a gun. Since he had a
prior felony conviction, the
case was Federalized.
On
July 10 he appeared, from the
Metropolitan Correctional
Center, before U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Edgardo Ramos. Inner City
Press covered it.
While this
initial conference was in some
ways routine - discovery was
described, including a seized
cell phone - in the
interstices of the proceeding
the current state of play in
criminal cases in the SDNY was
illuminated.
The
Assistant US Attorney said
that at first the Office only
asked those AUSAs who live
within walking distance of One
Saint Andrews Plaza to come in
on a volunteer basis.
The Federal
Defender on the case said that
his office is still closed,
with David Patton saying thing
will only re-open in late
August or early September, and
then only in
shifts.
Judge Ramos
asked about speaking with
inmates.
The Federal
Defender said there is a daily
window for calls, usually
between 1 and 3:30 pm, thirty
minutes per call. It was said
that sometimes the calls are
abruptly ended.
As to
Sanjurjo, his next status
conference is on September 9.
The case is US v. Sanjurjo,
20-cr-316 (Ramos)
