THIS MATTER came before the Court on the stipulated motion by the parties for

an Order continuing the trial date from December 4, 2006, and continuing the deadline

for filing pretrial motions from November 2, 2006. This motion was brought on the

grounds that the Court granted Defendant’s counsel, David Arganian’s, motion to

substitute counsel on October 10, 2006; that Defendant’s counsel requires additional time

to review voluminous discovery in this case; that the government and Defendant’s new

counsel require additional time to explore the resolution of the case by plea; and that an

extension of the trial date would allow Defendant and his counsel the reasonable time

necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence.

Having considered these arguments from the parties, and all other matters of

record, and being fully advised in the premises,

THE COURT HEREBY FINDS that, for reasons set forth in the parties’ stipulated

motion, the ends of justice to be served by granting the requested continuance outweigh
