STIPULATION REGARDING EXCLUDABLE TIME PERIODS UNDER SPEEDY TRIAL ACT; ORDER

STIPULATION

Plaintiff United States of America, by and through its counsel of record, and defendant, by and through defendant's counsel of record, hereby stipulate as follows:

1. By previous order, this matter was set for status on May 11, 2017.

2. By this stipulation, defendant now moves to continue the status conference until June 29, 2017, and to exclude time between May 11, 2017, and June 29, 2017, under Local Code T4.

3. The parties agree and stipulate, and request that the Court find the following:

a) The government has represented that the discovery associated with this case includes approximately 100 pages of documents. All of this discovery has been either produced directly to counsel and/or made available for inspection and copying. b) Additionally, defendant's counsel of record has made a request for specific additional discovery. The government has partially addressed this request by gathering and producing audio/video recordings and additional written reports. The government is working with the California Highway Patrol to address the remainder of the request. c) Counsel for defendant desires additional time to receive and review the pending discovery in this matter, to conduct investigation and research related to the charges, to research and prepare pretrial motions, to consult with her client, and to otherwise prepare for trial. d) Counsel for defendant believes that failure to grant the above-requested continuance would deny him/her the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. e) The government does not object to the continuance. f) Based on the above-stated findings, the ends of justice served by continuing the case as requested outweigh the interest of the public and the defendant in a trial within the original date prescribed by the Speedy Trial Act. g) For the purpose of computing time under the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3161, et seq., within which trial must commence, the time period of May 11, 2017 to June 29, 2017, inclusive, is deemed excludable pursuant to 18 U.S.C.§ 3161(h)(7)(A), B(iv) [Local Code T4] because it results from a continuance granted by the Court at defendant's request on the basis of the Court's finding that the ends of justice served by taking such action outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. 4. Nothing in this stipulation and order shall preclude a finding that other provisions of the Speedy Trial Act dictate that additional time periods are excludable from the period within which a trial must commence.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.

ORDER

IT IS SO ORDERED.
