SDNY COURTHOUSE,
April 20 – Emmanuel Lambrakis
pled guilty to having illegal
prescribed oxycodone without a
legitimate media purpose.
Now amid
the Covid-19 pandemic his
Fatico hearing has been
indefinitely postponed.
In a
September 4 proceeding covered
by Inner City Press, U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge William A. Pauley cited
the closure of the Eastern
District of New York
courthouse due to COVID
incidents. The this: " Minute
Entry for proceedings held

Pauley, III: Status Conference

Brill, Esq. and Robert
Caliendo, Esq. on behalf of

Fatico hearing. Fatico hearing
adjourned sine die. Further
conference scheduled for
November 17, 2020 at 11:00
a.m. Parties to submit a joint
letter by November 5, 2020."
Back in April
Judge Pauley had several
questions for Assistant US
Attorneys Ryan B. Finkel and
Sarah Mortazavi.
Why if they
previously said Lambrakis was
a risk of flight had they
change these position now? Did
Lambrakis and his proposed
surety, his wife, filed tax
returns for 2016, 2017 and
2018? Judge Pauley wants to
see them. And the previous
sureties who traveled to
Greece, had they returned?
One
of Lambrakis' two CJA lawyers
answer that one of the
sureties had returned. Judge
Pauley asked for further
written submissions, noting
that since Lambrakis was under
quarantine he could not be
released until April 28 in any
event.
One
of Lambrakis' lawyer says he
had a trial before Judge
Dearie in the EDNY on July 6.
Judge Pauley said he doubted
there was be jury trial by
July 6, but nevertheless
pushed the non-jury Fatico
hearing back to July 28. And
now, it is sine die. The case
is US v. Lambrakis, 17-cr-208
(Pauley).
