New York prosecutor asks to postpone hearing against García Luna


January 20th, 2019

The petition was made after considering that it is a complex case and requires further preparation, so they asked Judge Brian Cogan.

"The expected discovery includes, among others, financial, property and naturalization records, evidence of a seizure, evidence obtained through requests to foreign countries in accordance with the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaties and evidence recovered from seized electronic devices," he states. the petition, also indicating that the others that the financial records he obtained from García Luna show that when he settled in the United States in 2012 he had already amassed a personal fortune of millions of dollars.

In addition, the letter says that "the (US) government hopes to produce a voluminous discovery in this case related to the defendant's criminal conduct, which covers almost two decades."

Title 18 of the United States Code, Section 3161 (h) (7) (B), which covers the New York Prosecutor's Office headed by Richard P. Donoghue, states in its second section that “If the case is as unusual or as complex, due to the number of defendants, the nature of the prosecution or the existence of new issues of fact or law, it is not reasonable to expect adequate preparation for preventive procedures or for the trial itself within the established deadlines for this section. "

At the time of finishing this note, Judge Coglan has not responded to the petition, so the hearing is expected to take place tomorrow.

As documented extensively on this website, the former official faces charges of money laundering and receiving bribes from the Sinaloa Cartel during the administration of Felipe Calderón.
