ORDER
The defendant, through counsel, has moved to continue the September 5, 2007 trial in the above case, citing the need for additional time to complete a treatment program in which he is enrolled in Mississippi. The government does not object to a continuance of the trial date.
Accordingly, for the above reason and to allow the parties additional time to properly prepare for trial, the court will continue the trial from September 5, 1007 to November 6, 2007. In agreeing to continue the trial, the court finds pursuant to 18 U.S.C.A. § 3161(h)(8)(A) that for the above-stated reasons, the ends of justice served in granting a continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial
The August 29, 2007 final pretrial conference is continued to October 24, 2007 at 4:45 p.m.
SO ORDERED.
