____________________________________) 

With the agreement of the parties, the Court enters this Order excluding the time period

from December 1, 2005, through January 13, 2005 under the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. 

§ 3161. The parties agree, and the Court finds and holds, as follows:

1. The parties appeared before the Court on December 1, 2005, for a status hearing.

The Defendant is in custody serving a pre-existing state sentence of imprisonment. The parties

are awaiting the results of DNA testing on the firearm at issue in this federal case. According to

the San Francisco Police Department Crime Lab, the DNA analysis should be completed by the

end of the month of December. At the request of the parties, the Court set a further status

hearing in this case for January 13, 2005, at 11:00 a.m., and excluded the intervening time period

from the Speedy Trial Act calculation. This filing memorializes that exclusion of time.

2. Because the Defendant wishes to know the outcome of the DNA testing before

proceeding further in this matter, as well as an opportunity to consult with an expert on the

results of said testing, the parties jointly request that the Court exclude the time period from

December 1, 2005 through January 13, 2005 under the Speedy Trial Act. In light of the

foregoing facts, the parties stipulate that the failure to grant the requested continuance would

unreasonably deny the Defendant effective preparation of counsel taking into account the

exercise of due diligence, that the ends of justice would be served by the Court excluding the

proposed time period, and that these ends outweigh the best interest of the public and the

Defendant in a speedy trial. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(8)(A), (B)(iv).

SO STIPULATED.

Trial Act calculation under 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(8)(A), (B)(iv).

PURSUANT TO STIPULATION, IT IS SO ORDERED.
