Case No. 2:24cr318-DJC
STIPULATION AND ORDER TO CONTINUE
STATUS CONFERENCE AND EXCLUDE TIME
Date: November 20, 2025
Time: 9:00 a.m.
Judge: Hon. Daniel J. Calabretta

1. 	To date, the government has produced over 500 pages, 26 audio/video files,
cellular extractions for five devices, and significant additional native discovery
pertaining to social media in discovery. The case has been declared complex
under local code T2. Dkt. 42.

Stipulation and Order to Continue/Exclude
Time
2026 at 9:00 a.m. because they need additional time to review discovery and
investigate the case.
3. 	The defendants believe that failure to grant the requested continuance would deny
them the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account
the exercise of due diligence.
4. 	The government does not object to the continuance request.
5. 	For the purpose of computing time under 18 U.S.C. § 3161 et seq. (Speedy Trial
Act), the parties request that the time period between November 20, 2025 and
February 26, 2026, inclusive, be deemed excludable pursuant to 18 U.S.C. §
3161(h)(7)(B)(iv) (Local Code T4), because it would result from a continuance
granted by the Court at the defense’s request, based on a finding that the ends of
justice served by granting the continuance outweighs the best interest of the
public and in a speedy trial. The parties also agree that it is appropriate to grant
the request because the case is complex (Local Code T2).
