SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 24 – Jose Coste is accused
of fraudulently obtaining
money from the Emergency
Witness Assistance
Program.
On November 24
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Laura Taylor Swain held
a proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
As his CJA
counsel Coste has gotten Akin
Gump, whose representative
said there are discussions
toward a disposition.
Judge Swain set
the next conference for
January 21, not 9 am which is
for in-custody defendants, but
rather 3 pm.
The case is US v.
Coste, 20-cr-462 (Swain)
