STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER CONTINUING STATUS CONFERENCE
GARLAND E. BURRELL, Jr., District Judge.
The United States of America, through its counsel Special Assistant U. S. Attorney Josh F. Sigal, and Ross Christopher Sullivan, through his counsel Clyde M. Blackmon, stipulate that the status conference now scheduled for 9:00 a.m. on April 1, 2016, shall be continued to 9:00 a.m. on April 15, 2016. At that time it is anticipated that Mr. Sullivan will change his plea.
Counsel needs to go over the plea agreement and discuss it with Mr. Sullivan. Therefore, the parties are in agreement that additional time is needed in order for counsel to prepare.
The parties further stipulate that the time from the currently set status conference on April 1, 2016, through April 15, 2016, the requested date for the continued status conference, should be excluded from computation of the time period in which trial should commence under the Speedy Trial Act. The parties stipulate that, taking into account the exercise of due diligence, the ends of justice would be served by the Court excluding that time period from computation due to the need for defense counsel to have reasonable time for effective preparation. 18 U.S.C. §3161(h)(7)(B)(iv); Local Code T4.
For these reasons, Mr. Sullivan, his counsel and the government stipulate and agree that the ends of justice served by granting the requested continuance of the status conference outweigh the best interests of the public and Mr. Sullivan in a speedy trial.
