STIPULATED REQUEST TO CONTINUE STATUS HEARING TO JULY 23, 2013
RICHARD SEEBORG, District Judge.
The above-captioned matter is set on June 11, 2013 at 2:30 p.m. before this Court for a status hearing following a settlement conference. The parties met for a settlement conference on June 6, 2013 with Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler. The parties and Judge Beeler agreed to meet for one additional settlement conference to take place on July 15, 2013 at 9:30 a.m. Thus, the parties request that this Court continue the status hearing regarding the settlement conference to July 23, 2013 to give the parties one additional meeting with Judge Beeler to work on a possible resolution for all defendants.
The Court has previously excluded the running of the speedy trial clock for effective preparation of counsel, 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv), through June 11, 2013. Therefore, the parties now request that the time between June 11, 2013 and July 23, 2013 be excluded from the running of the speedy trial clock for that same reason — effective preparation of counsel, 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv). The parties agree that, taking into account the public interest in prompt disposition of criminal cases, good cause exists for this extension due to scheduling of one additional settlement conference with Judge Beeler and the parties need to prepare for that conference. The parties also agree that the ends of justice served by granting such a continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendants in a speedy trial. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A).
SO STIPULATED:
For the reasons stated above, this matter is continued until July 23, 2013, for a status hearing regarding the settlement conference at which time change of plea, motions, or trial will be discussed. The Court finds that the exclusion of time from June 11, 2013 through July 23, 2013 is warranted and that the ends of justice served by the continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendants in a speedy trial. 18 U.S.C. § 3161 (h)(7)(A). The failure to grant the requested continuance would deny the defendants effective preparation of counsel. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv).
SO ORDERED.
