GÓMEZ, J. 
 
A supervised release revocation hearing in this matter was 
scheduled for September 20, 2016 (the “September, 2016, 
hearing”). A key witness for that hearing, Chrystina Clendinen 
(“Clendinen”), was unavailable to attend. The Court indicated to

the prosecutor the significance of Clendinen’s testimony and 
continued the hearing in order to ensure that Clendinen could 
appear at the next scheduled hearing. Thereafter, a supervised 
release revocation hearing was held on January 18, 2017. The 
government failed to procure the attendance of Clendinen for 
that hearing. In light of that failure, the Court decided to 
continue the January 18, 2017, supervised release revocation 
hearing so that Clendinen could be present to testify before the 
Court. 
 
The premises considered, it is hereby 
 
ORDERED that the supervised release revocation hearing of 
Yamini Potter and Alana Liburd shall resume at 11:00 am on 
January 23, 2017; and it is further  
 
ORDERED that the government shall, through such process as 
is necessary, procure the attendance of Ms. Chrystina Clendinen 
to testify at the January 23, 2017, supervised release 
revocation hearing.
