USA v. Farris

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA
CHARLOTTE DIVISION
3:18-CR-00099-RJC-DCK
THIS MATTER is before the Court on the defendant’s pro se Motion for
Preservation of Evidence. (Doc. No. 142).
In the motion, the defendant seeks entry of an order directing the
government to preserve any evidence or other information relating in any way to his
case until he has had the opportunity to inspect such records. (Id. at 1-2). Local
Criminal Rule 55-2 and Local Civil Rule 79.1 govern the custody and disposition of
trial evidence. The defendant has not shown any legal authority to require
expanded preservation while he pursues post-conviction relief under 28 U.S.C. §
2255.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the Motion for Preservation of
Evidence, (Doc. No. 142), is DENIED.
