STIPULATION AND ORDER
VACATING DATE, CONTINUING
CASE, AND EXCLUDING TIME
JUDGE: Hon. Lawrence K. Karlton IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between Assistant United States Attorney Paul Hemesath, Counsel for Plaintiff, and Attorney Clemente M. Jiménez, Counsel for Defendant ALEJANDRO MEDINA-PRADO, that the status conference scheduled for September 7, 2011, at 9:15 a.m., be vacated and the matter continued to this Court's criminal calendar on October 4, 2011, at 9:15 a.m. for further status conference. The matter is near resolution. The defense seeks additional time to gather and provide information to the government to that end. The parties anticipate that the matter will either resolve on October 4, or be ready to set trial dates.
IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED that time for trial under the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. Section 3161 et seq. be tolled pursuant to Section 3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv), (Local code T-4), and that the ends of justice served in granting the continuance and allowing the defendants further time to prepare outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant to a speedy trial.

ORDER
IT IS SO ORDERED, that the status conference in the above-entitled matter, scheduled for September 7, 2011, at 9:15 a.m., be vacated and the matter continued to October 4, 2011, at 9:15 a.m. for further status conference. The Court finds that time under the Speedy Trial Act shall be excluded through that date in order to afford counsel reasonable time to prepare. Based on the parties' representations, the Court finds that the ends of justice served by granting a continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendants to a speedy trial.
