UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff, v. GILBERTO LOREDO VASQUEZ, Defendant.
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Before the court is a report and recommendation of the United States magistrate judge regarding the Defendant's competency for trial. The parties have not filed objections to the report.
Having conducted an independent review, the court concludes that the Defendant is competent to stand trial because he is able to understand the nature and consequences of the proceedings against him, and able to assist his attorney in his defense. It is therefore
ORDERED that the report and recommendation of the United States magistrate judge on the Defendant's competency to stand trial is ADOPTED. It is further ORDERED that the Defendant, Gilberto Loredo Vasquez, is competent. The speedy trial time shall be excluded from March 4, 2016 until the date of this order.
SIGNED at Beaumont, Texas, this 19th day of April, 2017.
