1. Mr. Tate wants to appear in person for his sentencing hearing. However, given the recent increase in COVID-19 test positivity rate in the State of Nevada, which is currently
21.1 percent, the parties seek a continuance to prevent the spread of the virus and to allow for proper safety precautions.
2. The defendant is incarcerated and does not object to the continuance.
3. The parties agree to the continuance.
