____________________________________) 

The parties stipulate and agree, and the Court finds and holds, as follows:

1. The parties initially appeared in United States District Court on the instant matter on

March 11, 2005. The matter was continued until April 15, 2005 for trial setting. At that time,

there was an exclusion of time requested and granted based upon effective preparation of

counsel.

2. On April 15, 2005, the parties appeared and Tony Tamburello, counsel for the defendant,

requested additional time in which to receive forensic discovery in the matter and review such

material with defendant’s forensic expert. The parties requested that the matter be continued

until May 20, 2005 for trial setting. There was a request that time be excluded based upon

effective preparation of counsel. Subsequently, the matter was continued until July 1, 2005 for

trial setting. 

4. On July 1, 2005, this Court established September 12, 2005 as a trial date in the matter. 

Subsequently, the government has received new forensic evidence in this matter which may lead

to a superseding indictment being pursued against the defendant. 

5. On or about August 7, 2005, counsel for the defendant contacted government counsel in

order to discuss a resolution of the case. Mr. Tamburello is/was out of town on a family vacation

at this time and government counsel was also out of the office.

6.On August 11, 2005, government counsel returned to the office and contacted Mr.

Tamburello. At this time, government counsel informed Mr. Tamburello that the government

had received new forensic evidence in the pending trial matter. Government counsel informed

Mr. Tamburello that while no decision had yet been made, this new evidence could lead to a

superseding indictment being pursued. Government counsel indicated that she would provide

this new forensic evidence to Mr. Tamburello for his review and discussion with his client. Mr.

Tamburello indicated that he will be in a position to receive and review this evidence on August

29 when he returns to his office. Mr. Tamburello also indicated, however, that he has a homicide

preliminary hearing set for this same date in Redwood City, California. 

7. Mr. Tamburello indicated that he would require additional time to receive and review the

new evidence with his client. 

8. Based upon the government’s obligation to provide the defendant with this newly derived

evidence and counsel for the defendant’s obligation to effectively review the discovery and

consult with his client, the parties are requesting that the present trial date of September 12, 2005

be vacated. The parties request that the matter be placed on the Court’s September 6, 2005

calendar for change of plea or trial setting. The parties further request that time continue to be

excluded based upon effective preparation of counsel.

9. In light of the foregoing facts, the failure to grant the requested exclusion would

unreasonably deny counsel for the defense the reasonable time necessary for effective

preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. See 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(8)(A),

(B)(iv). The ends of justice would be served by the Court excluding the proposed time period. 

These ends outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial. See id. §

3161(h)(8)(A). 

SO STIPULATED.
