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 Brian L. Urbano, Assistant U.S. Attorney), and defendants Leonardo Blanco (by David Goldstein, Esq.) and Michael Jiminez (Gary Mizzone, Esq.) for an order granting a continuance of the proceedings in the above-captioned matter, and the defendant being aware that she has the 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 16 of the United States Code, Section 3161(c) (1), and as the defendant has consented to such a continuance, and for good and sufficient cause shown,

3. Pursuant to Title 18 of the United States Code, Section 3161(h) (8), the ends of justice served by granting the continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.
