ORDER

This matter is before the court on Defendant's unopposed Motion to Continue Trial [23]. Counsel is scheduled to begin a four-day trial in Grand Island, NE on December 4, 2017 and needs to continue trial. For good cause shown,

IT IS ORDERED that Defendant's unopposed Motion to Continue Trial [23] is granted as follows:

1. The jury trial, now set for December 5, 2017, is continued to January 16, 2018.

2. In accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A), the court finds that the ends of justice will be served by granting this continuance and outweigh the interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. Any additional time arising as a result of the granting of this motion, that is, the time between today's date and January 16, 2018, shall be deemed excludable time in any computation of time under the requirement of the Speedy Trial Act. Failure to grant a continuance 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)(A) & (B)(iv).
