STIPULATION AND ORDER
TO CONTINUE STATUS CONFERENCE
Date: April 5, 2013
Judge: Hon. Garland E. Burrell, Jr.
The parties request that the status conference in this case be continued from February 1, 2013, to April 5, 2013 at 9:00 a.m. They stipulate that the time between February 1, 2013 and April 5, 2013 should be excluded from the calculation of time under the Speedy Trial Act. The parties stipulate that the ends of justice are served by the Court excluding such time, so that counsel for the defendant may have reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. 18 U.S.C §3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv)and Local Code T-4. Defense counsel needs additional time to investigate the facts of the case and to negotiate a resolution to this matter. Specifically, defense counsel needs additional time to review and examine the several hundred thousand pages of discovery that the Government has recently disclosed. The parties stipulate and agree that the interests of justice served by granting this continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. 18 U.S.C. §3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv)and Local Code T-4.
Respectfully submitted,
