UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. VICTOR FRIAS-GARCIA, Defendant.
ORDER
JOHN G. KOELTL, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE:
For the reasons explained at today's conference, the defendant's application for release is denied. The Clerk is directed to close ECF No. 17.
The parties are directed to appear for another conference on May 31, 2022, at 10:30 a.m.
Because a continuance is needed to assure the effective assistance of counsel, to allow the Government to complete discovery, and to allow time for the defense to complete reviewing discovery and determine what motions if any the defense intends to make, the Court prospectively excludes the time from today, March 22, 2022, until May 31, 2022, from Speedy Trial Act calculations. The Court finds that the ends of justice served by granting the continuance outweigh the best interest of the defendant and the public in a speedy trial.
This Order is entered pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A).
SO ORDERED.
