Opinion
Case No. 08-cr-22-PB.
April 24, 2008
ORDER
The defendant, through counsel, has moved to continue the May 6, 2008 trial in the above case to allow time to negotiate a plea agreement or prepare for trial. The government does not object to a continuance of the trial date.
Accordingly, for the above reasons, the court will continue the trial from May 6, 2008 to August 19, 2008. In agreeing to continue the trial, the court finds pursuant to 18 U.S.C.A. § 3161(h)(8)(A) that for the above-stated reasons, the ends of justice served in granting a continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.
The April 29, 2008 final pretrial conference is continued to July 29, 2008 at 3:45 p.m.
SO ORDERED.
