STIPULATION AND ORDER CONTINUING STATUS CONFERENCE AND EXCLUDING TIME
WILLIAM B. SHUBB, District Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED between plaintiff, United States of America, and defendant Kevin Webber, through their respective attorneys, that the status conference scheduled for June 30, 2014 at 9:30 a.m. may be continued to August 25, 2014 at 9:30 a.m.
Counsel for defendant Webber has obtained a psychological evaluation of Mr. Webber, who has been diagnosed as suffering from the developmental disorder of autism, which had never been diagnosed or treated previously. Based on the additional information obtained from the Regional Center in Stockton, both counsel for the government and for the defendant are attempting to craft a disposition which counsel for Mr. Webber has proposed as Pre-Trial Diversion. Counsel for the government needs a bit more time to evaluate such a disposition and, hopefully, begin its implementation.
In order to prepare effectively for a resolution of the charges against defendant Webber, the parties agree that time under the Speedy Trial Act should be excluded through August 25, 2014, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) and that the ends of justice served by taking such action outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
