STIPULATION TO CONTINUE CHANGE OF PLEA HEARING
LAWRENCE J. O'NEILL, Chief District Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between Phillip A. Talbert, United States Attorney and Kimberly A. Sanchez, Assistant U.S. Attorney and Michael Grahn and Ernest Lutz, attorneys for the defendants, that the change of plea hearing set for December 11, 2017 at 8:30 am before the Honorable Lawrence J. O'Neill be continued to February 5, 2018 at 8:30 a.m. Mr. Grahn, who is Counsel for Mr. Torres-Hernandez, has knee surgery scheduled for December 27, 2017, and a pre-op appointment on Monday, December 11, 2017 that he prefers not to postpone. On December 7, 2017, Mr. Lutz provided the government with information that requires assessment and potentially further investigation. All parties have made advancements in plea negotiations, including further investigation conducted, and expect the matter will be resolved imminently.
The parties further request the Court to enter an Order finding that the "ends of justice" served by a continuance outweigh the interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial, and that the delay through February 5, 2018 is excluded from the Act's time limits pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
