 v. 

GABRIELA CARTER,

CASE NO. 2:15-CR-00046 JAM 

STIPULATION REGARDING EXCLUDABLE 

TIME PERIODS UNDER SPEEDY TRIAL ACT; 

FINDINGS AND ORDER 

DATE: May 19, 2015 

TIME: 9:15 a.m. 

COURT: Hon. John A. Mendez 

STIPULATION 

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

through defendant’s counsel of record, hereby stipulate as follows: 

1. By previous order, this matter was set for status on May 19, 2015. 

2. On April 29, 2015, the Court continued the status conference until June 23, 2015. By this 

stipulation, the defendant now moves to exclude time between May 19, 2015, and June 23, 2015, under 

Local Code T4. 

3. The parties agree and stipulate, and request that the Court find the following: 

a) The government has represented that the discovery associated with this case 

includes thousands of pages, including several boxes of documents obtained by subpoena. All of 

this discovery has been either produced directly to counsel and/or made available for inspection 

and copying.

b) Counsel for defendant desires additional time to consult with his client, to review 

the current charges, to conduct investigation and research related to the charges, to review the 

discovery, and to otherwise prepare for trial. 

c) Counsel for defendant believes that failure to grant the above-requested 

continuance would deny him/her the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking 

into account the exercise of due diligence. 

d) Based on the above-stated findings, the ends of justice served by continuing the 

case as requested outweigh the interest of the public and the defendant in a trial within the 

original date prescribed by the Speedy Trial Act. 

e) For the purpose of computing time under the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3161, 

et seq., within which trial must commence, the time period of May 19, 2015 to June 23, 2015, 

inclusive, is deemed excludable pursuant to 18 U.S.C.§ 3161(h)(7)(A), B(iv) [Local Code T4] 

because it results from a continuance granted on the basis of the Court’s finding that the ends of 

justice served by taking such action outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in 

a speedy trial.
