Promoters Eric Cusimano and Jamie Boye close to plea deal

Trial adjourned until December in anticipation of parties reaching plea deals. http://www.goodetrades.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/adjournment.pdf

Since the initial appearance, counsel for the government has spoken
extensively with all defense counsel, and anticipate that a pretrial resolution will be reached
in this case for the defendants. In the case of Defendant Eric Cusimano and Defendant
Jessica Cusimano, the parties have discussed the parameters of a potential plea, and have a
nearly finalized plea document. The parties need to clarify a few minor issues, at which
point the plea will be submitted for approval. In the case of Defendant Jamie Boye, the
parties have discussed the parameters of a potential plea, and additional discovery has been
provided to assist in evaluating the plea. For all of the defendants, the pre-indictment plea
process has been lengthy due to the complex issues regarding the plea, including loss
calculations for guidelines purposes, associated tax issues, and the forfeiture of assets that
will accompany the plea. Therefore, the parties are requesting additional time to allow a
change of plea and sentence to occur in the present case.
