STIPULATION TO CONTINUE
PRELIMINARY HEARING AND TO
EXCLUDE TIME AND [PROPOSED] ORDER
The parties stipulate that the preliminary hearing in the above-captioned matter shall be continued from January 26, 2012 at 2:00 pm to February 28, 2012 at 2:00 pm. The parties further stipulate that the time between January 26, 2012 and February 28, 2012 should be excluded from the calculation of time under the Speedy Trial Act. The parties stipulate that the arrest in this case occurred at a time before the investigation was completed, and that the case is complex given the number of clients of Ms. Durkee and bank accounts involved. The investigation has continued, a significant amount of materials have been acquired, and the government needs additional time to review, analyze, and synthesize those materials. Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 5.1(d) and 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iii).
The parties further stipulate and agree that there is good cause for this extension, and that the ends of justice served by taking this action outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 5.1(d) and 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A).
Respectfully Submitted,
