ORDER FOLLOWING HEARING ON
REMEDIES FOR RESPONDENT’S CIVIL
CONTEMPT

Respondent.

16
This matter came before the court for hearing on June 26, 2018. On that date, respondent

17
18

Cynthia Briseno was arrested after having been found in civil contempt of this court. (See Doc.

19

No. 20). At that hearing, respondent agreed to meet that afternoon with IRS Revenue Officer

20

Lorena Ramos, and to comply with the IRS Summons in full within 30 days. Given these

21

circumstances, the United States did not oppose respondent’s release from custody. Accordingly,

22

the court recalled the warrant and ordered respondent be released from custody forthwith.
A further hearing on this matter has been set for August 7, 2018, at 9:30 a.m. Respondent

23
24

is ordered to appear at this hearing if the matter remains on calendar. In the event respondent

25

fully complies with the court’s order prior to the August 7, 2018 hearing by satisfactorily

26

responding to the IRS Summons, the United States shall so notify the court and the hearing will

27

be vacated.
