COURT: Hon. Lawrence K. Karlton
Stipulation
The government and defendants Rueda-Barragan and Rodriguez-Plancarte, through undersigned counsel, stipulate that the status conference, scheduled for February 26, 2013, may be continued to April 2, 2013, at 9:15 a.m. The defense attorneys are reviewing discovery in this case with their respective clients and the parties have been discussing potential resolutions. However, the additional time requested in this stipulation is necessary for investigation by the defense, legal research, and further negotiations between the parties.
Further, all parties agree and stipulate that the ends of justice served by granting this continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. As such, the parties agree that time may be excluded from the speedy trial calculation under the Speedy Trial Act for counsel preparation, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv) and Local Code T4.
The parties have authorized the defense counsel for Rueda-Barragan to sign this stipulation on their behalf.
