 That this Motion is the second motion to continue the pre-trial motions deadline and trial 

date filed by any party; 

 That the Government has distributed voluminous discovery to the defense that pertains to 

the instant case as well as a related case, thereby requiring additional time for effective defense 

preparation; 

 That extra time is needed for the defendant to review discovery with counsel through the 

assistance of a foreign language interpreter; 

 That the defendant understands his rights to a Speedy Trial pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Section 

3161 and has executed a speedy trial waiver through January 31, 2007. 

 That no party, including the United States, opposes a second Motion to Continue the pretrial motions deadline and the trial date. 

 That this period of delay is reasonable; that the defendants are joined for trial; that the 

time for trial has not run; and that no motion for severance has yet been granted. 18 U.S.C. 

Section 3161(h)(7); 

 The Court finds that taking into account the complexity of the case and the exercise of 

due diligence, that the failure to grant the continuance would deny the defense the reasonable 

time for effective trial preparation; 

 Accordingly, This Court finds that the ends of justice served by granting the requested 

continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and defendants in a speedy trial; 18 U.S.C. 

Section 3161(h)(8)(A) and Section 3161(h)(8)(B)(iv).

 The new proposed dates of October 19, 2006, for the motions cut-off deadline, and 

November 27, 2006, for the trial date, do not appear to prejudice any party, including the 

Government. 

 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 

The Pre-Trial Motions Cut-Off date shall be extended to October 19, 2006, with the trial 

date of November 27, 2006. 

It is further ordered that the period of delay resulting from this continuance is excludable 

pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Section 3161(h)(8)(A) and (B) as to each co-defendant. 

SO ORDERED ON THIS 8th DAY OF September, 2006
