Change of Plea Hearings

Parties wishing to set a change of plea are advised as follows: (1) the Court requires the parties to provide a copy of the draft plea agreement (or plea declaration) to chambers (in hardcopy or via the Court's proposed order inbox, proposed_order_blakey@ilnd.uscourts.gov) at least one week prior to the change of plea hearing; and (2) if the matter involves an offense triggering a remand to custody under 18 U.S.C. § 3143 upon acceptance of the plea, the Defendant, if released on bond, must come to the hearing prepared to go into the custody of the United States Marshal. If the parties intend otherwise, or if either side plans to file a motion on the issue, the parties must so advise the Court at least three days prior to the change of plea hearing by calling the Courtroom Deputy. If the Defendant is subject to remand as described, the Government shall also advise the United States Marshal at least three days prior to the change of plea hearing.
