JOHN A. MENDEZ, District Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between Phillip A. Talbert, United States Attorney, through Jason Hitt, Assistant United States Attorney, attorney for Plaintiff, and Heather Williams, Federal Defender, through Assistant Federal Defender Jerome Price, attorney for Aaron Lindsey, that the status conference scheduled for October 10, 2017 be vacated and be continued to October 24, 2017 at 9:15 a.m.
Defense counsel requires additional time to continue investigating the facts of the case, reviewing discovery and negotiating a resolution to this matter.
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 24, 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 24, 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 October 10, 2017 status conference shall be continued until October 24, 2017, at 9:15 a.m before Hon. John A. Mendez.
