ORDER AFTER CONFERENCE ON MARCH 3, 2008

A conference was held on March 3, 2008, at 3:30 p.m. in Portland, Maine.

Presiding: George Z. Singal, Chief U.S. District Judge

Appearances: For Government: Robert M. Kinsella, Esq.

For Defendant Jason Gerhard: Stanley W. Norkunas, Esq.

For Defendant Daniel Riley: Daniel Riley and Sven Wiberg, Esq.
as standby counsel
On his request, David H. Bownes, Esq. representing Defendant Cirino was
excused from attending the conference.

At the conference, the Court primarily dealt with Mr. Riley’s Request (Docket #

277) for access to computer discs that had previously been sent to him at the Strafford

County Jail by third parties and Mr. Riley’s request for additional time to use the

computers at the jail to undertake legal research and prepare his case for trial. For the

record, the Court notes that the parties have agreed to the following with respect to

Defendant Riley’s Request (Docket # 277):

(1) To facilitate Mr. Riley’s receipt of computer discs sent to him at the
Strafford County Jail by third parties, attorney Wiberg has agreed to
preview the content on each disc and, if attorney Wiberg determines
that there is no contraband on the disc and the disc contains no
computer viruses, attorney Wiberg shall confirm for jail personnel that
the disc is free of contraband and does not contain any computer
viruses that may corrupt the jail’s computers. It is the Court’s
 understanding that after attorney Wiberg reviews the contents of each
disc and certifies that the disc is free of contraband and computer
viruses, then the personnel of the Strafford County Jail shall provide
the discs to Mr. Riley.

(2) During a break in the conference, attorney Kinsella spoke to personnel

at the Strafford County Jail who attorney Kinsella stated had agreed to
permit Mr. Riley access to a computer for four (4) hours each day to
conduct legal research and prepare his case for trial. Mr. Riley agreed
that four (4) hours of computer time each day should be sufficient time
for him to prepare for trial.

(3) In addition, attorney Kinsella agreed to notify personnel at the

Strafford County Jail that Mr. Riley is pro se and that attorney Wiberg
serves as standby counsel.

Accordingly, Mr. Riley’s Request (Docket #277) shall be endorsed as MOOT.

In addition, the Court hereby ORDERS the following:

(1) Requests for jury instructions shall be filed on, or before, March 19,
