ORDER
This matter is before the Court upon the defendant's motion [Docket No. 27] to exclude the period of time from the date of this order through December 20, 2010 from the Speedy Trial Act computations in this case. Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A), the Court finds that the ends of justice served by the granting of such continuance outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. This finding is based on the facts set forth in the defendant's Statement of Facts in Support of Exclusion of Time Under Speedy Trial Act and in the accompanying motion.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that defendant's motion [Docket No. 27] is GRANTED IT IS HEREBY FURTHER ORDERED that the period from the date of this order through December 20, 2010 shall be excluded from the Speedy Trial Act computations in this case.
DATED: December 8, 2010 at Minneapolis, Minnesota
