STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER CONTINUING MATTER AND EXCLUDING TIME UNDER THE SPEEDY TRIAL ACT

JON S. TIGAR, District Judge.

STIPULATION

The parties appeared before the Honorable Jon S. Tigar on September 29, 2017, for an initial status conference. Defense counsel is still reviewing the discovery produced by the government, and needs additional time to assess the case and review options with Mr. Dovala. The parties requested, and the Court granted, a continuance until November 3, 2017. The parties also stipulated, and the Court ordered, that time between September 29, 2017 and November 3, 2017, be excluded for effective preparation of counsel pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv).

The parties further stipulate, and ask the Court to find, that the requested continuance and exclusion of time are in the interests of justice and outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A).

SO STIPULATED.

[PROPOSED] ORDER

For the reasons stated, this matter is continued until November 3, 2017 at 9:30 a.m. The time between September 29, 2017, and November 3, 2017, is excluded from the running of the speedy trial clock for effective preparation of counsel under 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv). Failure to grant the continuance would deny the defendant's counsel the reasonable time necessary to prepare, taking into account the exercise of due diligence.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
