Opinion

          HEATHER E. WILLIAMS, Federal Defender, MICHAEL PETRIK, Jr., Assistant Federal Defender, Sacramento, CA, Attorneys for Defendant.

          KYLE RODGER KNAPP, Attorney for Mr. Castellon.

          RONALD JAMES PETERS Attorney for Mr. Reyes.


          STIPULATION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE STATUS CONFERENCE TO SEPTEMBER 17, 2015, AT 9:00 A.M.

          MORRISON C. ENGLAND, Jr., Chief District Judge.

         The parties stipulate, through respective counsel, that the Court should continue the status conference set for August 6, 2015, at 9:00 a.m., to September 17, 2015, at 9:00 a.m.

         Defense counsel require the continuance to consult with their clients about discovery and proposed plea agreements, to meet and confer, and to negotiate further with the government.

         Counsel and the defendants agree that the Court should exclude the time from the date of this order through September 17, 2015, when it computes the time within which trial must commence under the Speedy Trial Act, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7), and Local Code T4.

         Counsel and the defendants also agree that the ends of justice served by the Court granting this continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendants in a speedy trial.

          ORDER

         The Court, having received, read, and considered the stipulation of the parties, and good cause appearing, adopts the stipulation in its entirety as its order. The Court specifically finds that the failure to grant a continuance in this case would deny defense counsel reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. The Court finds that the ends of justice served by granting the continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and defendants in a speedy trial.

         The Court orders the status conference rescheduled for September 17, 2015, at 9:00 a.m. The Court orders the time from the date of this order, up to and including September 17, 2015, excluded from computation of time within which the trial of this case must commence under the Speedy Trial Act, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7), and Local Code T4.

         IT IS SO ORDERED.
