Opinion
CRIMINAL CASE NO. 11-00084-CG.
June 23, 2011
ORDER
This matter is before the court on the defendant's unopposed Motion to Continue trial filed on June 22, 2011 (Doc. 26), to which a waiver of speedy trial signed by the defendant is attached.
Upon due consideration of the grounds cited by counsel, the motion is hereby GRANTED. The court finds that a continuance of the trial is appropriate pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) (B)(i) (iv), and that the ends of justice outweigh the best interest of the defendant and the public in a speedy trial. Therefore, trial is hereby CONTINUED to the August 2011 criminal term, which commences with jury selection beginning on August 1, 2011.
The clerk is directed to refer this matter to the Magistrate Judge to schedule a pretrial conference during the month of July 2011.
