STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER TO CONTINUE STATUS CONFERENCE, AND TO EXCLUDE TIME

GARLAND E. BURRELL, District Judge.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between Phillip A. Talbert, Acting United States Attorney, through Assistant United States Attorney Brian Fogerty, attorney for Plaintiff, Heather Williams, Federal Defender, through Assistant Federal Defender Hannah R. Labaree, attorney for Steven Vernon Roland, that the status conference scheduled for November 18, 2016 be zvacated and be continued January 6, 2017 at 9:00 a.m.

The grounds for this continuance are that defense counsel would like additional time to review the discovery that has been produced and to investigate the facts of the case, so to allow time for effective preparation for trial and to negotiate a resolution to this matter.

Based upon the foregoing, the parties agree time under the Speedy Trial Act should be excluded from November 18, 2006 through and including January 6, 2017; 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 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 served by granting the requested continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and defendant in a speedy trial.

The Court orders the time from November 18, 2016 through and including January 6, 2017, 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 November 18, 2016 status conference shall be continued until January 6, 2017, at 9:00 a.m.
