THIS MATTER comes before the Court on a defendant Sandhu’s motion to

continue the trial date and the pre-trial motions deadline. The government and the

defendants currently within the jurisdiction of this Court, including: Jatinder Brar,

Lawrence Carter, Harjeevan Parhar, Raman Pathania, and Harminder Singh have no

objection to the continuance, and have filed waivers of speedy trial. The remaining

defendants: Stormy Walker, Sandip Parhar, Amardeep Powar, Nizar Sabaz-Ali and Kavel

Multani are currently residing in Canada while the government seeks their extradition to the

United States for prosecution, therefore they are not parties to this motion.

Order Continuing Trial and Motions 

Deadline/Multani, et al./CR06-38RSM –2 UNITED STATES ATTORNEY

601 UNION STREET, SUITE 5100

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON 98101-3903

(206) 553-7970

Having considered the entirety of the record and files herein, the Court finds that

failure to grant a continuance would likely result in a miscarriage of justice. The case is

complex involving eleven defendants, over two thousand pages of discovery and over

three thousand intercepted telephone conversations. 

It is unreasonable to expect adequate preparation before the current trial date of

June 5, 2006. The Court further finds that the interests of the public and the defendants

in a speedy trial in this case are outweighed by the ends of justice. 

IT IS NOW, THEREFORE, ORDERED that trial is continued from June 5, 2006

to September 5, 2006, and that the time between the date of this Order and the new trial

date be excludable time under the Speedy Trial Act pursuant to Title 18, United States

Code, Sections 3161(h)(8)(A), 3161(h)(8)(B)(i), and 3161(h)(8)(B)(ii). 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that pre-trial motions shall be filed on or before

August 2, 2006.

 Dated this 2nd day of June, 2006
