STIPULATION AND ORDER CONTINUING STATUS CONFERENCE

TROY L. NUNLEY, District Judge.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties hereto through their respective counsel, Olusere Olowoyeye, Assistant United States Attorney, attorney for Plaintiff, Heather E. Williams, Federal Defender, through Assistant Federal Defender Matthew C. Bockmon, attorney for Stacey Mistler, agree to vacate the change of plea date of January 22, 2015 and set it for March 19, 2015 at 9:30 a.m. for the following reason:

The reason for the request is to allow defense counsel to review the proposed plea agreement with the defendant in preparation for her change of plea.

Based upon the foregoing, the parties agree time under the Speedy Trial Act should be excluded of this order's date through and including March 19, 2015; pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §3161 (h)(7)(A)and (B)(iv)[reasonable time to prepare] and General Order 479, Local Code T4 based upon continuity of counsel and defense preparation.

ORDER

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, the Court, having received, read, and considered the parties' stipulation, and good cause appearing therefrom, adopts the parties' stipulation in its entirety as its order. The Court specifically finds the failure to grant a continuance in this case would deny counsel reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. The Court finds the ends of justice are served by granting the requested continuance and outweigh the best interests of the public and defendant in a speedy trial.

The Court orders the time from the date the parties stipulated, up to and including March 19, 2015, shall be excluded from computation of time within which the trial of this case must be commenced under the Speedy Trial Act, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) and(B)(iv) [reasonable time for counsel to prepare] and General Order 479, (Local Code T4). It is further ordered the January 22, 2015 change of plea hearing shall be continued until March 19, 2015, at 9:30 a.m.
