UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. JOSEPH ANTHONY AMARI

Jane H. Yoon Assistant U.S. Attorney Chester M. Keller, Esq. Counsel for defendant Joseph Anthony Amari


Hon. Katharine S. Hayden


TRIAL CONTINUANCE ORDER

This matter having come before the Court on the joint application of Paul J. Fishman, United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey (by Jane K. Yoon and Shirley Emehelu, Assistant U.S. Attorneys), and defendant Joseph Anthony Amari (by Chester M. Keller, First Assistant Federal Public Defender) for an order granting a continuance of the proceedings in the above-captioned matter, and the defendant being aware that he has a right to have the matter brought to trial within 70 days of the date of his appearance before a judicial officer of this court pursuant to Title 18 of the United States Code, Section 3161(c) (1), and the defendant having consented to the continuance and waived such right, and for good and sufficient cause shown,

IT IS THE FINDING OF THIS COURT that the proceedings in this matter should be continued for the following reasons:

1. Plea negotiations are in progress, and both the United States and the defendant desire additional time to negotiate a plea agreement, which would render a subsequent trial of this matter unnecessary;

2. Pursuant to Title 18 of the United States Code, Section 3161(h)(7), the ends of justice served by granting the continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.

WHEREFORE, on this 24th day of January 2013,

ORDERED that this action be, and it hereby is, continued for a period of 30 days from January 28, 2013 through and including February 28, 2013; and it is further

ORDERED that the period from January 28, 2013 through and including February 28, 2013 shall be excludable in computing time under the Speedy Trial Act of 1974.
