IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES


                           No. 16-1348

                 MICHAEL N. CURRIER, PETITIONER

                                V.

                     COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA





                     ON WRIT OF CERTIORARI
                 TO THE SUPREME COURT OF VIRGINIA





            MOTION OF THE UNITED STATES FOR LEAVE TO
          PARTICIPATE IN ORAL ARGUMENT AS AMICUS CURIAE
                    AND FOR DIVIDED ARGUMENT



     Pursuant to Rules 28.4 and 28.7 of the Rules of this Court,

the Solicitor General, on behalf of the United States, respectfully

moves that the United States be granted leave to participate in

oral argument in this case as amicus curiae supporting respondent

and that the United States be allowed ten minutes of argument time.

Respondent has agreed to cede ten minutes of argument time to the

United States and therefore consents to this motion.

     1.   This case involves whether a defendant who voluntarily

consents to severance of multiple charges that are based on the

same set of facts into separate trials may invoke the Double

Jeopardy Clause of the Fifth Amendment to the United States
