This Stipulation is entered into for the following reasons:
1. Counsel for the defendant has spoken to his out-of-custody client and he has no objection to the request for continuance.
2. Counsel for the defendant has spoken to counsel for the United States and she has no objection to the continuance.
3. Counsel for the defendant is representing a witness in a State jury trial and needs to be available for when he testifies.
4. Counsel for the defendant needs additional time to conduct investigation in this case in order to determine whether there are any pretrial issues that must be litigated and whether the case will ultimately go to trial or will be resolved through negotiations.
5. For all the above-stated reasons, the ends of justice would best be served by a continuance of the Trial until a date and time convenient to the court.
This is the second request for continuance filed herein.
