SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 20 – Kejin Zhang was up
for sentencing on November 20,
2023 for using four fake IDs
to commit $157,000 in check
kiting.
Zhang
appeared before U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
John P. Cronan. Inner City
Press was there, the only
media in the courtroom.
Judge
Cronan said that his fellow
District Judge Edgardo Ramos
had on November 17 sentenced
Chaobin Zheng to time served
for $138,226.99 in check
kiting.
As of noon on
November 20, that time served
sentence was not in the
docket, but the Government's
letter recommending 12 month
in prison for Zheng was. That
case is US v. Zheng, 23-cr-352
(Ramos)
After
taking a break to deliberate,
Judge Cronan returned and
sentenced Zhang to six months
imprisonment and one year of
supervised release, the first
six months of which are to be
home detention.
He did not
follow Probation's recommended
search condition.
This case is US
v. Zhang, 23-cr-366 (Cronan)
