Opinion
Case No. 11-40057-01/04-RDR
08-19-2011
UNITED STATES of AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. MARCOS FIDEL MOJICA-CRUZ, Defendant.
ORDER EXTENDING TIME FOR FILING PRETRIAL MOTIONS
The court hereby grants defendant's motion for extension of time to file pretrial motions. Pretrial motions are due on September 19, 2011. A hearing on the motions is set for October 13, 2011 at 9:30 a.m. For the reasons set out in the motion, the Court finds the continuance will not prejudice the parties, is necessary for the effective defense of Mr. Mojica-Cruz, and that the need for a continuance outweighs the interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial, as set out in 18 U.S.C. 3161(h)(8).
