STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER EXCLUDING TIME FROM MAY 5, 2017 TO JUNE 23, 2017
JON S. TIGAR, District Judge.
Plaintiff United States of America and defendant Marcus L. Jones, by and through their respective counsel of record, hereby stipulate as follows:
1. On May 5, 2017, the parties appeared before the Court for the first District Court appearance in this case. Pursuant to the parties' request, the Court set the matter for a further status hearing on June 23, 2017.
2. The parties jointly stipulated to exclude the time between May 5, 2017, and June 23, 2017, from the time in which the defendant must be brought to trial pursuant to the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3161 et seq. The government produced discovery in this case on May 5, 2017, and the defense requires time to review the discovery and discuss the case with Mr. Jones, as well as participate in potential plea negotiations with the government. Therefore, the parties agree that the time period from May 5, 2017, through June 23, 2017, inclusive, should be excluded pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161(h)(7)(A) and (h)(7)(B)(iv) on the basis that the ends of justice served by the continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and defendant in a speedy trial, and failing to exclude this time would deny counsel the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
ORDER
Based upon the representations of counsel and for good cause shown, the Court finds that failing to exclude the time between from May 5, 2017, through June 23, 2017 would deny counsel the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv). The Court further finds that the ends of justice served by excluding the time from May 5, 2017, through June 23, 2017 from computation under the Speedy Trial Act outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the matter is set before this Court on June 23, 2017 at 1:00 p.m. for a status hearing, and that the time from May 5, 2017, through June 23, 2017 shall be excluded from computation under the Speedy Trial Act. 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv).
