Court Denies Wrackkie Quiogue’s Ex parte Sentencing Continuance; Reschedules to April 22

Judge Anne Hwang denied Defendant Wrackkie Quiogue's ex parte request to continue the sentencing hearing. The court set the sentencing for April 22, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. The defendant must submit position papers by April 1, 2026.

The government’s reply is due by April 8, 2026. This scheduling order came during a hearing on February 26, 2026, with the court reporter noted as Court Smart.

The denial of the continuance means the court intends to proceed with sentencing on the new date without further delay. The defendant sought to postpone the hearing but did not convince the judge to grant more time. The court’s firm deadlines for briefing indicate a clear timeline for final arguments before sentencing.

The case remains active with no public docket number or court identified. The limited information focuses on procedural scheduling rather than substantive rulings. Judge Hwang’s control over the timeline suggests she is managing the case toward resolution.

The defendant’s position papers will likely address reducing factors or objections to the presentence report. The government’s reply will respond to those arguments. The briefing schedule sets the stage for the judge’s sentencing decision.

Watch for the submission of the defendant’s papers by April 1, 2026, and the government’s reply by April 8, 2026. The sentencing hearing on April 22, 2026, will be the next major event. The court’s refusal to delay signals a firm push to conclude this phase of the case.
