STIPULATION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE STATUS CONFERENCE

TROY L. NUNLEY, District Judge.

STIPULATION

Plaintiff, United States of America, by and through its counsel, Assistant United States Attorney Jill Thomas, and defendant, Angela Shavlovsky, by and through her counsel, Erin J. Radekin, agree and stipulate to vacate the date set for status conference, January 22, 2015 at 9:30 a.m., in the above-captioned matter, and to continue the status conference to March 12, 2015 at 9:30 a.m. in the courtroom of the Honorable Troy L. Nunley.

The reason for this request is that additional time is needed by Ms. Radekin to complete review of discovery, for investigation, and for other defense preparation. Ms. Radekin is still engaged in review of the voluminous discovery in this case, which currently ends at page 68740. In addition, on January 6, 2015, Ms. Radekin received 608 pages of trial transcripts from a related case that she also must review as part of her preparation of Ms. Shavlovsky's defense. Finally, there is investigation and other defense preparation that Ms. Radekin must complete. The Court is advised that Ms. Thomas concurs with this request and has authorized Ms. Radekin to sign this stipulation on her behalf.

The parties further agree and stipulate that the time period from the filing of this stipulation until March 12, 2015 should be excluded in computing time for commencement of trial under the Speedy Trial Act, based upon the interest of justice under 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv), and Local Code T4, to allow reasonable time necessary for effective defense preparation. It is further agreed and stipulated that the ends of justice served in granting the request outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.

Accordingly, the parties respectfully request the Court adopt this proposed stipulation.

IT IS SO STIPULATED
