STIPULATION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE
STATUS CONFERENCE TO MAY 23,
2013, AT 9:00 A.M.
Date: April 11, 2013
Judge: Hon. Morrison C. England
THE PARTIES STIPULATE, through counsel, Nirav K. Desai, Assistant United States Attorney, and Michael Petrik, Jr., attorney for Salvador Garcia-Contreras, that the Court should vacate the status conference scheduled for April 11, 2013, at 9:00 a.m., and reset it for May 23, 2013, at 9:00 a.m.
Counsel for defendant requires further time to review discovery, to consult with Mr. Garcia, and to conduct investigation.
The parties further stipulate that the Court should exclude the period from the date of this order through May 23, 2013, when it computes the time within which the trial of the above criminal prosecution must commence for purposes of the Speedy Trial Act. The parties stipulate that the ends of justice served by granting Mr. Garcia's request for a continuance outweigh the best interest of the public and Mr. Garcia in a speedy trial, and that this is an appropriate exclusion of time for defense preparation within the meaning of 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7) (Local Code T4).
Respectfully submitted,
JOSEPH SCHLESINGER
Acting Federal Defender
