UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. GERARD BEAUZILE
ORDER FOR CONTINUANCE
HON. FREDA L. WOLFSON UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT JUDGE
This matter having come before the Court on the joint application of the United States, by Philip R. Sellinger, United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey (by Blake Coppotelli, Assistant U.S. Attorney, appearing), and defendant Gerard Beauzile (by Laura Sayler, Esq., appearing), for an order granting a continuance of proceedings in the above-captioned matter; and the defendant being aware that he has the right to have this matter brought to trial within 70 days of the date of his appearance before a judicial officer of this court pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(c)(1); and the defendant having consented to such continuance and having waived such right; and for good cause shown, IT IS THE FINDING OF THIS COURT that this action should be continued for the following reasons:
1. The failure to grant a continuance would deny counsel for the defendant and counsel for the Government the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation for trial, taking into account the exercise of due diligence.
2. As a result of the foregoing, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) and (h)(7)(B)(iv), the ends of justice served by the granting of this continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.
IT IS, therefore, on this 28th day of April, 2022, ORDERED that this action be, and hereby is, continued until November 2, 2022; and it is further
ORDERED that the period from the date of this order through November 2, 2022 hereby is excluded in computing time under the Speedy Trial Act of 1974, 18 U.S.C. § 3161 et seq.
