ORDER DENYING CERTIFICATE OF APPEALABILITY *

_________________________________

Before HOLMES, Chief Judge, MATHESON, and EID, Circuit Judges.

_________________________________

These matters are before us on the Appellants’ Unopposed Motion to Summarily Resolve Appeals, wherein they each request a certificate of appealability (COA) on the following issue:

Did the district court err when it concluded that the Sixth Amendment is not violated if the government establishes the absence of prejudice when a prosecutor intentionally and unjustifiably intrudes on the defendant’s confidential attorney- client communications after the defendant pleads guilty but before the defendant is sentenced?

Appellants each acknowledge that, absent a COA, these appeals must be dismissed. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c). They also acknowledges that this court is bound by both United States v. Orduno-Ramirez, 61 F.4th 1263 (10th Cir. 2023) and United States v. Hohn, 123 F.4th 1084 (10th Cir. 2024) to deny the requested certificates of appealability.

Upon consideration, the abatement of these matters is lifted. Each appeal shall proceed on the preliminary record already on file. Appellants’ requests for a COA are

Appellate Case: 23-3260 Document: 48-1 Date Filed: 10/22/2025 Page: 3 foreclosed by Orduno-Ramirez and Hohn. Accordingly, we deny a COA for each appeal and dismiss these matters.
