CR. NO. 05-20050-Ma.
September 16, 2005
ORDER ON CONTINUANCE AND SPECIFYING PERIOD OF EXCLUDABLE DELAY
This cause came on for a report date on August 26, 2005. Defense counsel requested a continuance of the present trial date in order to allow for additional preparation in the case.
The Court granted the request and continued the trial to the rotation docket beginning October 3, 2005 at 9:30 a.m., with a report date of Friday, September 23, 2005 at 2:00 p.m.
The period from August 26, 2005 through October 14, 2005 is excludable under 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(8)(B)(iv) because the interests of justice in allowing additional time to prepare outweigh the need for a speedy trial.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 16th day of September, 2005.
