The Court is amenable to extending these deadlines upon written motion by the parties subject to the requirements of the Speedy Trial Act.
Counsel for both sides are ADVISED that, if any Defendant wishes to change his or her plea (i.e., plead guilty) in the future, the parties shall file the joint motion attached as an appendix to this scheduling order. Pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 11, the Court shall not participate in plea negotiations and takes no position on whether a defendant changes his or her plea. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 11(c)(1).
