Lafler / Frye Hearing — Dkt 94

This is the transcript of the February 12, 2026 hearing in U.S. v. Burton. Under questioning about the plea offers, Burton testified, “I signed the second one.”

The hearing records his lawyer’s acknowledgment that he sent the rejection emails and the prosecutor’s statement that no signed offer reached the government. It documents the statements made at the hearing, rather than a separate finding about attorney liability.
