STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER;
CONTINUING STATUS CONFERENCE
AND EXCLUDING TIME
Judge: Hon. Garland E. Burrell Jr.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties hereto through their respective counsel, MICHELE BECKWITH, Assistant United States Attorney, attorney for Plaintiff, and CARO MARKS, attorney for ISIDRO RUBIO-RODRIGUEZ, that the status conference hearing date of August 26, 2011 be vacated, and the matter be set for status conference on September 2, 2011 at 9:00 a.m.
The reason for this continuance is to allow defense counsel additional time to receive the "Pre-Plea Advisory Guideline Presentence Investigation Report" and the Plea Agreement. Then, defense counsel needs additional time to reserve her interpreter so both may travel to Butte County Jail, where the defendant is in custody, and review the plea offer with him.
Based upon the foregoing, the parties agree that the time under the Speedy Trial Act should be excluded from the date of signing of this order through and including September 2, 2011 pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §3161 (h)(7)(A)and (B)(iv)[reasonable time to prepare] and Local Code T4 based upon continuity of counsel and defense preparation.

ORDER
UPON GOOD CAUSE SHOWN and the stipulation of all parties, it is ordered that the August 26, 2011, status conference hearing be continued to September 2, 2011, at 9:00 a.m. Based on the representation of defense counsel and good cause appearing there from, the Court hereby finds that the failure to grant a continuance in this case would deny defense counsel reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. The Court finds that the ends of justice to be served by granting a continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. It is ordered that time up to and including the September 2, 2011 status conference shall be excluded from computation of time within which the trial of this matter must be commenced under the Speedy Trial Act pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv) and Local Code T-4, to allow defense counsel reasonable time to prepare.
