the Probation Office has not already filed an addendum to that
defendant's Presentence Report, the Probation Office will file an
addendum to the Presentence Report and a copy of this Standing

running (a) in a case where CJA counsel previously represented
the defendant and will continue to do so, when the motion for
reappointment is granted, and (b) in a case where new CJA counsel
must be appointed, when new CJA counsel has been appointed and

It is so ordered.
