STIPULATION REGARDING EXCLUDABLE TIME PERIODS UNDER THE SPEEDY TRIAL ACT; FINDINGS AND ORDER

Plaintiff United States of America, by and through Assistant United States Attorney Jason Hitt; defendant Leonard Walter, by and through counsel Scott L. Tedmon; and defendant James Cline, by and through counsel Danny D. Brace, Jr., hereby agree and stipulate as follows:

1. By previous order, this matter was set for status conference on January 10, 2017 at 9:15 a.m. 2. By this stipulation, the parties now move to continue the status conference to Tuesday, February 28, 2017 at 9:15 a.m., and to exclude time between January 10, 2017 and February 28, 2017 under Local Code T4. 3. The parties agree and stipulate, and request the Court find the following: a) Counsel for defendant Leonard Walter has recently been appointed to the Sacramento County Superior Court. Defense counsel has been advised Kelly Babineau will be substituting in as attorney for Mr. Walter. Ms. Babineau will need time to obtain and review the file and prepare the defense case. b) Defense counsel believes the failure to grant the above-requested continuance would deny each defendant reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. Counsel for the government has no objection to this request for additional time to prepare the case. c) Based on the foregoing, the ends of justice served by continuing the case as requested outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendants in a speedy trial within the original date prescribed by the Speedy Trial Act. d) For the purpose of computing time under the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3161, et seq., within which trial must commence, the time period of January 10, 2017 to February 28, 2017, inclusive, is deemed excludable pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A), (B)(iv) [Local Code T4] because it results from a continuance granted by the Court at the defendants request on the basis of the Court's finding that the ends of justice served by taking such action outweigh the best interest of the public and defendants in a speedy trial. 4. Nothing in this stipulation and order shall preclude a finding that other provisions of the Speedy Trial Act dictate that additional time periods are excludable from the period within which a trial must commence.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.

FINDINGS AND ORDER

IT IS SO FOUND AND ORDERED.
