SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 25 - In the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
on January 25, a change of
plea proceeding was held by
Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil on a
man charged with participating
in an asylum fraud scheme in
which he prepared fraudulent
asylum applications and
affidavits and coached clients
to lie under oath during
immigration proceedings
The defendant
Arthur Arcadian answered with
a series of "Yes" responses,
some of which cut off Judge
Vykocil questions. He
apologized.
He said he
coached the immigration client
in Bethpage. Judge Vyskocil
asked about venue. The
Assistant US Attorney said a
co-conspirator worked on the
affidavit from Washington
Heights, and they used a
membership card in an LGBT
community center in Manhattan.
The plea
was accepted and sentencing
set for May 31 at 11 am. The
plea agreement has a
sentencing guideline of eight
to 14 months.
The case is US v.
Dzhamgarova, et al., 21-cr-58
(Vyskocil)
