STIPULTATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER EXCLUDING TIME FROM AUGUST 22, 2017 TO October 3, 2017

RICHARD SEEBORG, District Judge.

STIPULATION

IT IS HERBY STIPULATED by the parties, through undersigned counsel, that:

1. The defendants, ROBERT GUEVARA, represented by Severa Keith, Esquire, and LILLIAN HOVAN, represented by Ethan A. Balogh, Esquire, and the government, represented by Denise Oki, Special Assistant United States Attorney, appeared before the Court on August 22, 2017, for a status conference. The Court, after hearing the status in this case, scheduled a further status hearing for October 3, 2017, the date proposed by counsel.

2. The parties requested that time be excluded under the Speedy Trial Act between August 22, 2017, and October 3, 2017, because the continuance is necessary for effective preparation of counsel, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. Specifically, the time requested for exclusion will allow counsel for the defendants to obtain and review the discovery in this case.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.

[PROPOSED] ORDER

Based upon the representation of counsel and for good cause shown, the Court finds that failing to exclude the time between August 22, 2017, and October 3, 2017, would unreasonably deny the defendants the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv). The Court further finds that the ends of justice served by excluding the time between August 22, 2017, and October 3, 2017, from computation under the Speedy Trial Act outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the time between August 22, 2017, and October 3, 2017, shall be excluded from computation under the Speedy Trial Act. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv).
