COUNSEL AND ORDER TO CONTINUE

STIPULATION

Plaintiff, United States of America, by and through its counsel of record, and the defendant, by 

and through his counsels of record, hereby stipulate as follows:

1. The parties are set to appear on January 25, 2017 at 9:00 a.m. for initial appearance and 

identification of counsel. By this stipulation, the defendant now moves to continue the 

initial appearance until March 22, 2017 at 9:00 a.m. The request for continuance is based 

on the defendant’s work obligations and ensuing hardship based on such obligations.

2. Counsels for the defendant believe that failure to grant the above requested continuance 

would deny them the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into 

account the exercise of due diligence and the Government does not object to the 

continuance. 

3. Defendant further agrees to waive personal service of any summons reflecting the new 

court date, and further agrees to appear in person on March 22, 2017 at 9:00 a.m.

IT IS SO STIPULATED. Respectfully submitted,

DECLARATION OF COUNSEL

Under penalty of perjury, I declare that I have spoken with Defendant Michael Anthony 

Scott and he has retained the law offices of Bird & Van Dyke, Inc. APLC to represent him in the 

above-entitled matter. Mr. Scott is a resident of Williams, Arizona. He is gainfully employed by 

the Historic Brewing Company as a Lead Bartender with a work schedule from Tuesday through 

Saturday. It would be a significant financial hardship for Mr. Scott to appear on January 25th

based on his current work obligations. He is able to appear on March 22nd, 2017.
