MORRISON C. ENGLAND, Jr., District Judge.
It is hereby stipulated and agreed to between the United States of America through Jared Dolan, Assistant U.S. Attorney, defendant, Timnesha Wilson, by and through her counsel, Noa E. Oren, Assistant Federal Defender, defendant, Jermila McCoy, by and through her counsel, Scott A. Sugarman, and defendant, Zeffrey Cain, by and through his counsel David L. Anderson that the status conference set for Thursday, December 18, 2014, be continued to Thursday, January 29, 2015, at 9:00 a.m.
The reason for this continuance is to allow defense counsel additional time to review discovery with the defendant, to examine possible defenses and to continue investigating the facts of the case.
It is further stipulated that the time period from the date of this stipulation, December 12, 2014, through and including the date of the new status conference hearing, January 29, 2015, shall be excluded from computation of time within which the trial of this matter must be commenced under the Speedy Trial Act, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161 (h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv) and Local Code T4 [reasonable time for defense counsel to prepare].
The Court, having received, read, and considered the stipulation of the parties, and good cause appearing, adopts the stipulation in its entirety as its order. The Court specifically finds that the failure to grant a continuance in this case would deny defense counsel reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. The Court finds that the ends of justice served by granting the continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and defendant in a speedy trial.
The Court orders the status conference rescheduled for January 29, 2015, at 9:00 a.m. The Court orders the time from the date of the parties stipulation, up to and including January 29, 2015, excluded from computation of time within which the trial of this case must commence under the Speedy Trial Act, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§3161(h)(7), and Local Code T4.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
