STIPULATION TO CONTINUE SENTENCING HEARING AND PROPOSED ORDER

LAWRENCE J. O'NEILL, Chief District Judge.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties hereto that the Sentencing Hearing currently scheduled for July 8, 2019, at 8:30 a.m. be continued to August 12, 2019, at 8:30 a.m. before the Honorable Lawrence J. O'Neill.

The need for a continuance is based upon defense counsel's current schedule, as well as other relevant circumstances. Defense counsel's current situation has been relayed to the Government through Assistant U.S. Attorney Kirk Sherriff who has no objection to the continuance based upon defense counsel's trial schedule.

As relayed to Mr. Sherriff, defense counsel began a 2-week jury trial in the Kings County Superior Court today, July 1, 2019. As the Kings County Superior Court proceeds with the trial every day, counsel shall not be able to attend the sentencing hearing as scheduled and provide the Defendant with effective assistance as related to sentencing.

The parties stipulate and agree that time can be excluded from July 8, 2019, to, and including, August 12, 2019, based upon counsel's need to be able to adequately represent his client at sentencing, and that the ends of justice outweigh the public's and defendants' interest in a speedy resolution.

Under the circumstances set forth herein, it is respectfully suggested that good cause does exist for a continuance to the hereinabove-noted date.

IT IS SO STIPULATED.

ORDER

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Sentencing Hearing currently scheduled on July 8, 2019, at 8:30 a.m., is continued to August 12, 2019, at 8:30 a.m.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
