STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED]
ORDER
Date:
Time:
Judge: Hon. Garland E. Burrell, Jr.
IT IS HEREBY stipulated and agreed to between all parties, that the Trial Confirmation Hearing scheduled for January 13, 2012 should be vacated and reset for July 6, 2012. It is also stipulated and agreed to between all parties that the jury trial scheduled for January 31, 2012 should be vacated, and reset for August 28, 2012.
The parties further stipulate and agree that the period from the date of this stipulation through and including August 28, 2012, be excluded in computing the time within which trial must commence under the Speedy Trial Act, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § § 3161(h)(7)(A), (h)(7)(B)(iv) and Local T4. Counsel for defendant requires additional time for continuity of counsel and preparation of counsel for trial. Accordingly, all parties stipulate and agree that the interests of justice served by granting this continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendants in a speedy trial. 18 U.S.C. §3161(h)(7)(B)(iv).
Respectfully Submitted,

ORDER
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED: That the Trial Confirmation Hearing scheduled for January 13, 2012 is vacated, and reset for July 6, 2012. It is also ordered that the jury trial scheduled for January 31, 2012 is vacated, and reset for August 28, 2012. It is further ORDERED that the time under the Speedy Trial Act between today's date and August 28, 2012, is excluded under Local Code T4, and 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7), to ensure continuity of counsel and adequate time for defense counsel to prepare for trial. For the reasons set forth above, the court finds that the ends of justice served by a continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial and therefore excludes time through August 28, 2012.
