STIPULATION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE
STATUS CONFERENCE HEARING
DATE: April 22, 2013
JUDGE: Hon. Barbara A. McAuliffe
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties hereto through their respective counsel that the status conference in the above-captioned matter now set for February 11, 2013, may be continued to April 22, 2013 at 1:00 p.m. before Magistrate Barbara A. McAuliffe.
This continuance is at the request of defense counsel as defense needs additional time in preparation of this case. Defense counsel has now viewed the evidence in this case. Additionally, defense is in receipt of an offer from the government and would like to propose a counter-offer which it is currently drafting and plans to send to the government by the end of the week. Finally, defense has some ongoing investigation it would like to complete.
The requested continuance is with the intention of conserving time and resources for both parties and the court. The parties agree that the delay resulting from the continuance shall be excluded in the interests of justice, including but not limited to, the need for the period of time set forth herein for effective defense preparation, defense investigation, and plea negotiation purposes pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161(h)(7)(A) and 3161(h)(7)(B)(i) and (iv).
Respectfully submitted,
BENJAMIN B. WAGNER
