STIPULATION TO SET COURT DATE PER APPELLATE MANDATE

JOHN A. MENDEZ, District Judge.

The defendant, PHILLIP SELFA, through his undersigned counsel and the United States, through its undersigned counsel, hereby agree and request that the status conference currently set for Tuesday, Tuesday, June 23, 2015 at 9:15 am be vacated and continued until Tuesday, July 7, 2015 at 9:15 am.

A continuance is necessary to allow defense counsel additional time evaluate the case, hold discussions with his client, and negotiations with the government toward a potential resolution of the charges.

The parties stipulate that the failure to grant a continuance in this matter would deny counsel reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence; that the ends of justice served by granting this continuance outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial; and that time should be excluded from the computation of time within which trial must commence under the Speedy Trial Act from June 22, 2015, up to and including July 7, 2015, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161 (h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv) and Local Code T-4, to allow defense counsel reasonable time to prepare.

I, William E. Bonham, the filing party, have received authorization from AUSA Michelle Rodriguez to sign and submit this stipulation and proposed order on her behalf.

Accordingly, the defense and the United States agree and stipulate that the status conference for defendant Phillip Selfa should be continued until Tuesday, July 7, 2015 at 9:15 am.

ORDER TO CONTINUE STATUS CONFERENCE

ORDER

The status conference currently set for Tuesday, June 23, 2015 at 9:15 am is vacated and continued to Tuesday, July 7, 2015, at 9:15 am.

It is further ordered based on the stipulation of the parties, I find the failure to grant such a continuance would deny counsel reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. Accordingly, the time within which the trial of this case must be commenced under the Speedy Trial Act is excluded from the date of the parties' stipulation, June 22, 2015, up to and including the date of the new hearing, July 7, 2015, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161 (h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv) and Local Code T-4. I specifically find that the ends of justice served by granting this continuance outweigh the best interest of the public and defendant in a speedy trial within the meaning of 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv) and Local Code T-4.
