UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. SERGIO CEPEDA, Defendant,
SCHEDULING ORDER
LORNA G. SCHOFIELD, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
WHEREAS the parties filed a letter dated July 12, 2022, stipulating to (i) dates for the production of Rule 16 discovery; (ii) a briefing schedule for the filing of motions; (iii) dates for a pretrial conference; and (iv) making an application to exclude time. (Dkt. No. 10) It is hereby
ORDERED that the stipulated dates are approved in part. The Government shall produce any Rule 16 discovery by July 28, 2022. It is further
ORDERED that Defendant's motion(s), if any, shall be filed by September 30, 2022. The Government's response, if any, shall be filed by October 14, 2022. Defendants' reply, if any, shall be filed by October 24, 2022. It is further
ORDERED that the parties shall appear for a status conference on November 7, 2022, at 10:30 a.m. It is further
ORDERED that the Court finds that the ends of justice served by excluding the time between today and November 7, 2022, outweigh the best interests of the public and the Defendant in a speedy trial as provided in 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) because, the exclusion would give Defendant time to review discovery and would allow the parties to engage in discussions regarding a potential disposition of this matter. The time between today and November 7, 2022, is hereby excluded. The Clerk of the Court is directed to terminate the letter motion at docket number 10.
The parties are warned that any discussions regarding the possible disposition of this matter will not stay the aforementioned schedule.
