Attorney for defendant RUDY TAFOYA

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff,

v.

RUDY TAFOYA,

Defendant.

No. 14-CR-00193-GEB

STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER 

TO CONTINUE STATUS CONFERENCE

Defendant, Rudy Tafoya, by and through his undersigned 

counsel, and the United States, through its undersigned counsel, 

hereby agree and request that the change of plea hearing 

currently set for Friday, January 15, 2016 at 9:00 am be vacated 

and reset for Friday, February 5, 2016 at 9:00 am. 

A continuance is necessary to allow defense counsel 

additional time to evaluate the case and hold discussions with 

his client regarding the plea agreement recently provided by the 

Government.

The parties further stipulate that the failure to grant a 

continuance in this matter would deny counsel reasonable time 

necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the

exercise of due diligence; that the ends of justice served by 

granting this continuance outweigh the best interest of the 

public and the defendant in a speedy trial; and that time should 

be excluded from the computation of time within which trial must 

commence under the Speedy Trial Act from January 15, 2016, up to 

and including February 5, 2016, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161 

(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv) and Local Code T-4, to allow defense 

counsel reasonable time to prepare.

I, William E. Bonham, the filing party, have received 

authorization from AUSA Justin Lee to sign and submit this 

stipulation and proposed order on his behalf.

Accordingly, the defense and the United States agree and 

stipulate that the change of plea hearing for defendant Rudy 

Tafoya should be reset for Friday, February 5, 2016 at 9:00 am.

ORDER

The change of plea hearing currently set for Friday, January 

15, 2016 at 9:00 am is vacated and reset for Friday, February 5, 

2016, at 9:00 am. 

I find that the failure to grant such a continuance would 

deny counsel reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, 

taking into account the exercise of due diligence. Accordingly, 

the time within which the trial of this case must be commenced 

under the Speedy Trial Act is excluded from January 15, 2016, up 

to and including the date of the new status conference, February 

5, 2016, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv) and 

Local Code T4. I specifically find that the ends of justice 

served by granting this continuance outweigh the best interest of 

the public and defendants in a speedy trial within the meaning of 

18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(A) and (B)(iv) and Local Code T-4. IT IS 

SO ORDERED. 

Dated: January 12, 2016
