REGARDING EXCLUDABLE TIME PERIODS 

UNDER SPEEDY TRIAL ACT; [PROPOSED] 

FINDINGS AND ORDER

DATE: September 30, 2016

TIME: 9:00 a.m.

COURT: Hon. Garland E. Burrell, Jr.

STIPULATION

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

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

1. By previous order, this matter was set for a status hearing on September 30, 2016. 

2. By this stipulation, defendant and the United States jointly request that this matter be set 

for a jury trial on June 6, 2017 at 9:00 a.m., with a trial confirmation hearing set for April 28, 2017 at 

9:00 a.m. The parties presently estimate the trial will take approximately twelve (12) court days.

3. The parties further request a deadline for any motions governed by Rule 12(b) of the 

Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure be set for January 13, 2017.

4. By this stipulation, defendant further moves to exclude time between September 30, 

2016, and June 5, 2017, under Local Code T4. 

5. 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 approximately 64,000 pages of individually-labeled discovery as well as several thousands of 

pages of documents contained in boxes obtained during a search of the defendant’s residence. All of 

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

copying.

b) Counsel for defendant, who was substituted in as counsel of record on January 26, 

2016, desires additional time continue to review discovery, to investigate the case, to research potential 

trial motions, and to otherwise prepare the matter 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 September 30, 2016 to June 5, 2017, 

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 by the Court at defendant’s request 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.

6. Nothing in this stipulation and order shall preclude a finding that other provisions of the 

Speedy Trial Act dictate that additional time periods are excludable from the period within which a trial 

must commence.

FINDINGS AND ORDER

This matter came before the Court on the parties’ stipulation and request to set this matter for 

trial and to exclude time. For the reasons stated above, and for good cause showing, the COURT hereby 

adopts the proposed schedule and ORDERS that this matter be set for a jury trial to commence on June 

6, 2017 at 9:00 a.m., with a trial confirmation hearing set for April 28, 2017 at 9:00 a.m. Any pretrial 

motions governed by Rule 12(b) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure shall be filed on or before 

January 13, 2017. The Court further adopts the parties’ stipulation with respect to excludable time, and 

finds that, 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 September 30, 2016 to June 5, 2017, inclusive, is 

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

IT IS SO FOUND AND ORDERED.
