STIPULATION REGARDING EXCLUDABLE TIME PERIODS UNDER SPEEDY TRIAL ACT; FINDINGS AND ORDER
TROY L. NUNLEY, District Judge.
STIPULATION
Plaintiff United States of America, by and through its counsel of record, and defendant, by and through defendant's counsel of record, hereby stipulate as follows:
1. By previous order, this matter was set for status on June 8, 2017.
2. By this stipulation, defendant now moves to continue the status conference until August 24, 2017, at 9:30 a.m., and to exclude time between June 8, 2017, and August 24, 2017, under Local Code T4.
3. The parties agree and stipulate, and request that the Court find the following:
a) The government has represented that the discovery associated with this case includes approximately 440 pages of investigative reports and related documents in electronic format, and an audio recording of the defendant's statement to law enforcement. This discovery was produced on January 25, 2017. In addition, there are electronic devices that were seized from the defendant's residence, which contain material restricted by 18 U.S.C. § 3509(m), that have been made available for inspection.
b) Since the last continuance was granted counsel for the defendant has had to take medical leave and will continue to be on medical leave for the next one-to-two months. Counsel for the defendant will need additional time after he returns from medical leave to discuss the evidence and a potential resolution with his client.
c) Counsel for defendant believes that failure to grant the above-requested continuance would deny him/her 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 June 8, 2017 to August 24, 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 defendant's 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.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
FINDINGS AND ORDER
IT IS SO FOUND AND ORDERED.
