CASE NO. 4:16-CR-128

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATON OF UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Before the Court is an Amended Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge regarding Defendant's competency for trial. The parties have not filed objections to the Report.
Having conducted an independent review, the Court concludes that Defendant is competent to stand trial because Defendant 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 Amended Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge on Defendant's competency to stand trial is ADOPTED. It is further ORDERED that Defendant, Anthony John Yanis, is competent. The speedy trial time is excluded from February 13, 2017, until the date of this Order.
SIGNED at Beaumont, Texas, this 6th day of July, 2017.
