SDNY COURTHOUSE,
October 5 – In July 2012 Sixto
Ortiz was indicted in the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
as a felon in possession of a
firearm, a Jiminez Arms J.A.
-Nine 9mm caliber
semi-automatic
pistol.
Jump cut nine
years to September 30, 2020
and Sixto Ortiz, with the same
Federal Defender and the same
prosecutor, in front of the
same judge, Richard J.
Sullivan - now on the Second
Circuit Court of Appeals -
appeared virtual on the
CourtCall platform for a
violation of supervised
release
proceeding.
Judge Sullivan
said he could not simply
release him, but was open to
rehab.
He said he would
set up an other CourtCall
session for Monday, five days
hence. The AUSA
said that might not be
possible, that a week's notice
must be given.
Judge Sullivan
said, Not necessarily. Monday,
October 5 was selected.
But it turned out
not to be necessary. On
October 2 Judge Sullivan ruled
that because Ortiz was
released from the MCC to rehab
at Cornerstone of Medical Arts
Center Hospital in Fresh
Meadows, Queens, the October 5
proceeding was postponed until
November 13. A possible
success?
The case is US v.
Ortiz, 12-cr-791 (Sullivan)
