STIPULATION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE STATUS CONFERENCE TO MAY 24, 2011.
JOHN A. MENDEZ, District Judge.
It is hereby stipulated and agreed to between plaintiff, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, through its counsel of record, Matthew C. Stegman and Michael D. Anderson, Assistant United States Attorneys, and defendant DUANE ALLEN EDDINGS, through his counsel of record, Joseph J. Wiseman, that the status conference scheduled for May 10, 2011, at 9:30 a.m., be rescheduled to May 24, 2011, at 9:30 a.m.
The parties further stipulate and agree that a continuance is appropriate in this case and request that the time from the date of this order and extending through May 24, 2011, be ordered excluded from the calculation of time under the Speedy Trial Act. The ends of justice will be served by the Court excluding such time, so that the attorneys may have reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. 18 U.S.C. § 3161 (h) (7).
The government has informed defense counsel that it is awaiting approval from the Tax Division of the United States Department of Justice before moving forward on criminal tax charges. It is expected that a superseding indictment charging additional crimes such as tax evasion and bankruptcy fraud will be returned. Defense counsel will then need additional time to review and consider these additional charges before setting this case for trial.
The parties submit that the interests of justice served by granting this continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. 18 U.S.C. § 3161 (h) (7).
Respectfully submitted,
ORDER
GOOD CAUSE HAVING BEEN SHOWN, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT the status hearing in the above-captioned case be continued to May 24, 2011, at 9:30 a.m. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED THAT the time from the date of this Order to May 24, 2011, be excluded pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161 (h) (7) (ends of justice are served by granting the continuance outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial) and Local Rule T4.
