UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. RASHEEM WILLIAMS, Defendant.
ORDER
GREGORY H. WOODS, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
Upon the application of the United States of America, by and through DAMIAN WILLIAMS, United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, ASHLEY C. NICOLAS, Assistant United States Attorney, of counsel, and with the consent of RASHEEM WILLIAMS., by and through his attorney, HANNAH MCCREA, it is hereby ORDERED that the pretrial conference in this case is continued from September 28, 2022 to October 6, 2022 at 10:00 a.m.
The Court finds that the ends of justice served by granting a continuance outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial because granting an exclusion is warranted because it will provide time for the parties to negotiate a protective order, allow for the transfer of the defendant's co-defendant, and to begin discussing a potential pretrial disposition. Accordingly, it is further ORDERED that the time from the date of this order through October 6, 2022 is hereby excluded under the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A).
The Clerk of Court is directed to terminate the motion pending at Dkt. No. 11.
SO ORDERED.
