The defendants, by and through their counsel of record, have moved to continue this case until the next trial term. Docs. 39; 40. The defendants were indicted on October 14, 2021. Doc. 1. Defendant Brashun Shavonte Taylor had his arraignment in this Court on October 26, 2021. Doc. 11. Defendant Shyterius Elder had her arraignment in this Court on November 3, 2021. Doc. 28. One prior continuance has been granted. Docs. 36; 37.

Docs. 39 at 2; 40 at 2. The government does not oppose the motions. Id.

Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A), the Court finds the ends of justice served by granting this continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendants to a speedy trial.
