STIPULATION REGARDING EXCLUDABLE TIME PERIODS UNDER SPEEDY TRIAL ACT; ORDER
MORRISON C. ENGLAND, Jr., Chief District Judge.
STIPULATION
1. By previous order, this matter was set for status on May 5, 2016.
2. By this stipulation, the parties now move to continue the status conference to June 23, 2016, and to exclude time between May 5, 2016 and June 23, 2016, under Local Code T4.
3. The parties agree and stipulate, and request that the Court find the following:
a) Discovery associated with this case includes 146 pages and multiple CD/DVDs, some of which include lengthy surveillance, video and audio. This discovery has been either produced directly to counsel and/or made available for inspection and copying.
b) Defense counsel is currently in trial and desires additional time to review discovery and to confer with his client concerning discovery, investigation, potential options for the defense and trial preparation.
c) Counsel for defendant believes that failure to grant the above-requested continuance would deny counsel the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence.
d) The government does not object to the continuance.
e) Based on the above-stated findings, the ends of justice served by continuing the case as requested outweigh the interest of the public and the defendant in a trial within the original date prescribed by the Speedy Trial Act.
f) 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 May 5, 2016 to June 23, 2016, 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 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 the defendant 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.
