SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 17 – Bryan Duncan was
convicted in a slip and fall
insurance fraud conspiracy and
has been awaiting sentencing,
with restitution to be
determined.
On May 29 he
called the Chambers voicemail
of U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Sidney H.
Stein. Judge
Stein ordered Duncan "to have
no further direct contact with
chambers," and scheduled a
July 10 proceeding. Inner City
Press, which covered the
trial, covered this as
well.
Duncan's
new lawyer Patrick Megaro,
based in Florida and having
now having tested positive for
Coronavirus, on July 17
continued to argue for a
reduction in restitution and
to file exhibits under seal,
which he has.
He will
appear by phone at Duncan's
sentencing on July 27 - but
Duncan, it seems, will be in
the courtroom. Is that because
Judge Stein expects immediate
remand? And what is in the
sealed exhibits? Inner City
Press will continue to report
on this case.
The case is US v.
Duncan, 18-cr-289 (Stein)
