STIPULATION OF COUNSEL TO
CONTINUE TRIAL DATE OF
DECEMBER 5, 2011 AND EXCLUDE
TIME UNDER THE SPEEDY TRIAL ACT
The parties stipulate and agree that the jury trial set for December 5, 2011 before United States District Court Judge John A. Mendez should be continued to January 9, 2012, at 9 a.m. Further the parties agree and stipulate that the trial confirmation hearing of November 8, 2001, be continued until December 13, 2001 at 3 p.m. The parties further stipulate and agree that the ends of justice are served by the Court granting a continuance from December 5, 2011, to January 9, 2012, because government counsel is in jury trial currently and expects that trial to continue past December 5, 2011 and defense counsel Olaf Hedberg also has a trial scheduled in conflict with the set trial in this matter. The parties ask that the Court find that this interest of justice outweighs the interest of the public and the defendants in a speedy trial, in accordance with Title 18, § 3161(b) and (h)(8)(A) for the continuity of counsel.
Respectfully submitted,

ORDER
GOOD CAUSE APPEARING, the Court finds that:
1. So that the parties may review discover and continuity of counsel can be maintained because of Attorneys Hall and Hedberg unavailability during the week set for trial of December 5, 2011, the ends of justice served by the granting of this continuance outweighs the interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial, in accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 3161 (h)(8)(A).
2. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the jury trial in the above entitled matter is continued to January 9, 2012, at 9 a.m, and a new trial confirmation hearing is set for December 13, 2011 at 3 p.m., and the period of this continuance from December 5, 2011 until January 9, 2012 shall be excluded for the purposes of computing the time within the Speedy Trial Act.
SO ORDERED.
JOHN A. MENDEZ
United States District Court Judge
