STIPULATION REGARDING EXCLUDABLE TIME PERIODS UNDER SPEEDY TRIAL ACT; ORDER
MORRISON C. ENGLAND, JR., District Judge.
1. By previous order, this matter was set for status on August 8, 2019.
2. By this stipulation, the defendant now moves to continue the status conference until September 12, 2019 at 9:15 a.m., and to exclude time between August 8, 2019, at 10:00 a.m., 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 more than 100 pages of written discovery, as well as numerous audio and video files and spreadsheets of calls and text messages. All of this discovery has been either produced directly to counsel and/or made available for inspection and copying.
b) On or about March 20, 2019, the government produced additional audio/video discovery.
c) Counsel for defendant desires additional time review this discovery, 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 her the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. In particular, counsel for defendant has a trial scheduled in another case for August 20, 2019, that is expected to last two weeks
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 August 8, 2019 to September 12, 2019 at 10:00 a.m., 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.
