STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED]
ORDER EXCLUDING TIME UNDER 18 U.S.C. § 3161
The defendant appeared for a status conference before this Court on October 25, 2011. The parties requested that this matter be continued to December 13, 2011. The defendant needs time to review the additional discovery that was provided by the Government. There were no objections. The parties have agreed to exclude the period of time between October 25, 2011 to December 13, 2011, from any time limits applicable under 18 U.S.C. § 3161. The parties represented that granting the exclusion would allow the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation and continuity of counsel. See 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv). The parties also agree that good cause exists, and that the ends of justice served by granting such an exclusion of time outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A). At the hearing, the Court made findings consistent with this agreement.
