STIPULATION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE STATUS CONFERENCE AND EXCLUDE TIME

TROY L. NUNLEY, District Judge.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between Phillip A. Talbert, United States Attorney, through Ross K. Naughton, Assistant United States Attorney, attorney for Plaintiff, Christopher R. Cosca, attorney for Jose M. Flores Barraza, Todd D. Leras, attorney for Jose M. Olivera-Orozco, Michael E. Hansen, attorney for Jesus Olivera-Orozco, Clemente Jimenez, attorney for Adrian Guerrero Hernandez, and Heather Williams, Federal Defender, through Assistant Federal Defender Noa E. Oren, attorney for Jaime A. Sanchez-Robles, that the status conference scheduled for August 17, 2017 be vacated and be continued to October 5, 2017 at 9:30 a.m.

Defense counsel requires additional time to continue investigating the facts of the case and consult with their clients. The parties agree October 5, 2017 represents the next best date for a status conference.

Based upon the foregoing, the parties agree time under the Speedy Trial Act should be excluded from this order's date through and including October 5, 2017, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §3161 (h)(7)(A)and (B)(iv)[reasonable time to prepare] and General Order 479, Local Code T4 based upon continuity of counsel and defense preparation.

ORDER

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, the Court, having received, read, and considered the parties' stipulation, and good cause appearing therefrom, adopts the parties' stipulation in its entirety as its order. The Court specifically finds the failure to grant a continuance in this case would deny counsel reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. The Court finds the ends of justice are served by granting the requested continuance and outweigh the best interests of the public and defendant in a speedy trial.

The Court orders the time from the date the parties stipulated, up to and including October 5, 2017, shall be excluded from computation of time within which the trial of this case must be commenced under the Speedy Trial Act, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) and(B)(iv) [reasonable time for counsel to prepare] and General Order 479, (Local Code T4). It is further ordered the August 17, 2017 status conference shall be continued until October 5, 2017, at 9:30 a.m. before Judge Troy L. Nunley.
