Defendant. 	)
On August 26, 2026, Defendant made his initial appearance in the above-entitled action.
Prior to his initial appearance, Defendant was incarcerated by the State of North Dakota at the North
Dakota State Penitentiary. 	After the Indictment in this case was returned and an arrest warrant
issued, a detainer was filed by the United States with the North Dakota prison officials. Pursuant
to the Interstate Agreement on Detainers Act (“IADA”), Defendant’s appearance before this court
for his initial appearance and arraignment was secured by a writ of habeas corpus ad prosequendum.
At his initial appearance, Defendant was advised of his rights under the Interstate Agreement
on Detainers Act (“IADA”) to continued federal custody until the charges set forth in the Indictment
are adjudicated. 	Defendant waived in open court the anti-shuttling provisions of the IADA and
agreed to remain in the custody of the State of North Dakota (the “sending state” under the IADA)
at the North Dakota State Penitentiary pending further proceedings in this case initiated by the
United States (the “receiving state” under the IADA). 	He also executed an Interstate Agreement
on Detainers Anti-Shuttling Waiver Stipulation. (Doc. No. 90).
The court accepts Defendant’s waiver of his rights under the IADA's anti-shuttling
provisions, finding that it was made knowingly and intelligently, voluntarily, and upon advice of

state” under the IADA pending further proceedings or until further order of the court 	Further,
pursuant to Defendant’s waiver, the return of Defendant to his place of incarceration pending trial
shall not be grounds under the IADA for dismissal of the charges set forth in the Indictment.
