SHONIKA GAIL ECKLES
Petitioner,

SCHEDULING ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court upon Petitioner’s claims of ineffective assistance
of counsel during the plea negotiation phase of her criminal proceeding. More specifically, had
she been properly counseled, she would have accepted a plea agreement rather than proceed to
trial. The Court entered an order on May 16, 2014, that an Evidentiary Hearing will need to be
held in order to resolve this issue.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that:
The Bureau of Prisons and the United States Marshals Service is hereby ORDERED to
transport and produce the body of SHONIKA GAIL ECKLES (USM# 19925-058), for an
Evidentiary Hearing on September 2, 2014, at 3 PM, before the Honorable Richard L.
Voorhees, in the Western District of North Carolina, Statesville Courthouse, 200 West Broad
Street, 2nd Floor Courtroom, Statesville, North Carolina, not later than August 15, 2014, and
upon completion of the Evidentiary Hearing, Defendant is to be returned to the custody of the
Bureau of Prisons.
The Clerk is directed to certify copies of this Order to the United States Attorney,

Defendant’s Counsel, the United States Marshal Service, and the United States Probation Office.

Signed: June 19, 2014
