UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, v. GABRIEL BELL, Defendant.


ORDER

MARC T. TREADWELL, CHIEF JUDGE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

The defendant, by and through his counsel, has moved the Court to continue this case to the next trial term. Doc. 29. The defendant was indicted on May 9, 2023, and had his arraignment in this Court on May 31, 2023. Docs. 1; 13. One prior continuance has been granted. Doc. 25. The defendant, by and through his counsel, now moves the Court to continue this case to the next trial term to provide additional time for defendant's counsel to review discovery, investigate the case, develop and implement effective legal strategies, or negotiate a potential global resolution of this case as well as the violation of supervised release in 5:23-CR-39. Doc. 29 ¶ 7.

Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A), the Court finds the ends of justice served by granting this continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant to a speedy trial. Accordingly, the motion (Doc. 29) is GRANTED. The case is continued from the September term until the Court's trial term presently scheduled for November 13, 2023. The corresponding delay shall be deemed excludable pursuant to the provisions of the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161 et seq.

SO ORDERED.
