CARL W. HOFFMAN, Magistrate Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, by and between Steven W. Myhre, Acting United States Attorney, and Christopher Burton, Assistant United States Attorney, counsel for the United States of America; Roy Nelson, Esq., counsel for Defendant COREY WYLIE BROWN, that the preliminary hearing for the above-captioned matter, currently scheduled for November 6, 2017, at the hour of 4:00 p.m., be vacated and continued to a date and time convenient for this Court, but in no event earlier than thirty (30) days.
This stipulation is entered for the following reasons:
1. Counsel for Defendant needs additional time to review discovery. Counsel now has the aid of an investigator.
2. The parties require additional time to discuss the potential for a pre-Indictment negotiation.
3. The Defendant is not in custody and does not object to the continuance.
4. The parties need additional time to prepare in advance of any preliminary hearing, taking into account due diligence.
5. Denial of this request for continuance of the preliminary hearing would potentially prejudice both the Defendant and the Government and unnecessarily consume this Court's valuable resources.
6. Additionally, denial of this request for continuance could result in a miscarriage of justice.
7. The additional time requested by this stipulation is excludable in computing the time within which the defendant must be indicted and the trial herein must commence pursuant to the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161(b) and 3161(h)(7)(A), considering the factors under 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(i) and (iv).
8. This is the fourth request for a continuance of the preliminary hearing herein.
Based on the pending Stipulation of counsel, and good cause appearing therefore,
