Description:

Boise, Idaho criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant charged with possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance and importation of controlled substances.

Before the Court is a Report and Recommendation filed by the United States Magistrate Judge. (Dkt. 30). On June 18, 2024, Defendant appeared before the Magistrate Judge to enter a change of plea pursuant to a written Plea Agreement. The Magistrate Judge conducted the plea hearing and concluded there is a factual basis for Defendant's admission to forfeiture and plea of guilty to the charges contained in Count Two of the Indictment (Dkt. 2), and that they were entered voluntarily and with full knowledge of the consequences. No objections to the Report and Recommendation have been filed.

The Court now has reviewed the record and finds that the requirements of Rule 11 have been met. See United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114 (9th Cir. 2003). Specifically, the Court finds that the Magistrate Judge adhered to the requirements of Rule 11(b); that under Rule 11(b)(2), the Defendant's plea was voluntary and not the result of force or threats or promises apart from the plea agreement; and that a factual basis for the plea exists. See id. Accordingly, NOW THEREFORE IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (Dkt. 30) shall be, and the same is hereby, ADOPTED as the decision of the District Court and incorporated fully herein by reference.
