Opinion
No. CR 09-1207 SBA.
September 13, 2010
BARRY J. PORTMAN, Federal Public Defender, COLLEEN MARTIN, Assistant Federal Public Defender, Oakland, CA, Counsel for Defendant FELIPE AGUILERA.
ORDER
GOOD CAUSE APPEARING, and pursuant to the stipulation of the government and defendant Aguilera, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the status conference date in this case, currently scheduled for September 14, 2010, at 9:00 a.m. before the Honorable Saundra Brown Armstrong, is VACATED and RESET to October 12, 2010 at 9:00 a.m.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the time from September 14, 2010 to October 12, 2010, should be excluded in accordance with the provisions of the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv), for adequate preparation of counsel and continuity of counsel. The Court finds that the ends of justice served by the granting of the continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy and public trial and the failure to grant the requested continuance would unreasonably deny counsel the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account due diligence, given the need for the need for the defense to review discovery, perform legal research, and consult with the defendant.
SO ORDERED.
DATED: 9/13/10
