v.
FRANCISCO JAVIER CARDENAS-GOMEZ
Defendant.
CASE NO. 5:25-MJ-00046-CDB
ORDER TO CONTINUE PRELIMINARY
HEARING AND EXCLUDE TIME
(Doc. 14)
The Court has read and considered the parties’ stipulation to continue the preliminary hearing
and exclude time from calculation under the Speedy Trial Act. (Doc. 14). The Court finds there is good
cause for the continuance to allow defense counsel reasonable time to complete her review of the
discovery and prepare for any litigation. The Court also finds that the interests of justice served by
granting the continuance outweigh the interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.
Therefore, for good cause shown:
1. The preliminary hearing is continued from December 5, 2025, until December 19, 2025,
at 2:30 p.m., before the undersigned; and
