Comments by Mr. Stuart.
Court states its findings.
Court concludes that the ends of justice served by excluding 60 days from September 17, 2011 from the speedy trial calculations outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial and to require defendant to go to trial within the established speedy trial deadline would be unreasonable, taking into account due diligence.
