Order · POF Objection Deadline Extended by Three Business Days
This two-page document, dated January 28, 2026 from John F. Kaley of Doar Rieck Kaley & Mack, is the defense's letter request (granted by the Court) to extend deadlines on the Preliminary Order of Forfeiture ("POF") briefing schedule in United States v. Ho Wan Kwok (Miles Guo), S3 23 Cr. 118 (AT).
Request
The defense asks the Court — without objection from the government — to extend:
- Defense POF objections by three business days, from January 29, 2026 to February 3, 2026;
- Government's response by a commensurate three business days, from February 12, 2026 to February 17, 2026.
Reasons Cited
The letter cites several factors:
- Counsel have been working diligently on the POF objections, but other matters have taken more time than anticipated;
- A recent snowstorm caused additional delay;
- The defense team has been simultaneously preparing CIPA and Rule 17(c) submissions;
- Following the January 20, 2026 court appearance, counsel was inundated with statements from investors and customers previously unknown to them, whose perspectives bear directly on the POF issues and warrant review before the submission can be finalized;
- For lead counsel personally, unplanned necessities of another matter then scheduled for trial in this courthouse on March 2, 2026 have caused additional schedule pressure.
The Court grants the extension.
