UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. MARIANO A. MEZA, Defendant.


DECISION AND ORDER

Defendant, Mariano Meza, ("Meza") brings three motions: a motion to dismiss the indictment for failure to allege an element of the offense, a motion to dismiss the indictment on constitutional grounds, and a motion to suppress evidence.

Magistrate Judge William Callahan has recommended to this Court that Meza's motions be denied in their entirety.

The Court has read the submissions that support the positions of Meza and the Government and analyzed the reasoning and conclusions offered by the Magistrate Judge for his recommendation and concludes as follows.

The Court adopts the Magistrate Judges' recommendations in toto. The Court also adopts the rationale underpinning Magistrate Judge Callahan's decision.

Therefore, Meza's motions are denied.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

The Court adopts Magistrate Judge Callahan's recommendations (ECF No. 27); and

Meza's motions to dismiss (ECF Nos. 12, 13) and his motion to suppress (ECF No. 14) are DENIED.

Dated at Milwaukee, Wisconsin, this 11th day of April, 2014.
