District of Massachusetts issues order on excludable delay in USA v. Colon-Tirado case

The case USA v. Colon-Tirado et al, docket number 25-mj-06595, is active in the District of Massachusetts. The court has not yet assigned a judge.

The latest docket entries, dated May 12, 2026, show the court issued an order addressing excludable delay under the Speedy Trial Act. The order likely sets the timeline for pretrial proceedings by excluding certain periods from the speedy trial calculation.

The government charged Colon-Tirado and co-defendants, but the initial filings and charges remain under seal or have not been publicly disclosed. The case is still in the early stages, with no motions or hearings reported beyond the excludable delay order.

The absence of a judge assignment suggests the court is still organizing the case docket and scheduling initial proceedings. The Speedy Trial Act order indicates the court is managing timing issues to avoid unnecessary delays while preserving the defendants' rights.

The next steps will likely include formal arraignment, appointment of counsel if needed, and setting deadlines for motions or discovery. The court’s management of timing will shape how quickly the case moves toward resolution or trial.
