STIPULATION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE STATUS CONFERENCE, AND TO EXCLUDE TIME
JOHN A. MENDEZ, District Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between Phillip A. Talbert, Acting U.S. Attorney, through Katherine Lydon, Assistant United States Attorney, attorney for Plaintiff, Heather Williams, Federal Defender, through Assistant Federal Defender Sean Riordan, attorney for Tyler Hooper, that the status conference scheduled for July 12, 2016 be vacated and continued to September 20, 2016 at 9:15 a.m.
The Government has produced 676 bates-numbered documents, as well as videos and other media, to the defense. Defense counsel for Mr. Hooper requires additional time to review the discovery, to conduct additional investigation and legal research, and to confer with his client about how to proceed in this case.
Based upon the foregoing, the parties agree time under the Speedy Trial Act should be excluded as of July 12, 2016 through and including September 20, 2016 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 defendants in a speedy trial.
The Court orders the time from July 12, 2016, up to and including September 20, 2016, 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 July 12, 2016 status conference shall be continued until September 20, 2016, at 9:15 a.m.
