RE: United States nv. Smith, Criminal Action N0. 08-18-GMS
Dear Chief Judge Sleet: _ ;
U On April 17, 2008, the United States moved for a Preliminary Order of Forfeiture as to
certain cash of the defendant. The government respectfully requests that the Court grant the
Preliminary Order of Forfeiture at or before tomorrow’s sentencing in this case.
Rule 32.2(b)(3) ofthe Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure requires that the forfeiture
"be made a part of the sentence and included in the judgment? Accordingly, the government
respectfully requests that the following language be included in the Court’s sentencing colloquy
and on page six of the criminal judgment:
"Pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 853(a), the defendant shall forfeit to the United States the cash
identified in the Preliminary Order of Forfeiture, which Order is incorporated by reference into
the Criminal Judgment in this case."
Respectfully submitted, l
