UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. MARIA BARCELO, Defendant.
ORDER CONTINUING MOTION HEARING/TRIAL SETTING
HON. JINSOOK OHTA UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
On April 12, 2022, the parties filed a Joint Motion to Continue the Motion Hearing/Trial Setting currently set for April 22, 2022, to June 3, 2022. For good cause appearing, the Court GRANTS the joint motion to continue [Diet. 19] and sets the Motion Hearing/Trial Setting on June 3, 2022, at 1:30p.m.
For the reasons set forth in the joint motion, the Court finds that the ends of justice will be served by granting the requested continuance, and these outweigh the interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. Accordingly, the delay occasioned by this continuance is excludable pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A).
Further, on April 12, 2022, Defendant filed a pretrial motion that remains pending. Accordingly, the Court finds that time from April 12, 2022, to June 3, 2022 shall be excluded under the Speedy Trial Act on grounds that a pretrial motion is pending. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(1)(D).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
