SECOND MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF
TIME TO FILE POST-HEARING BRIEF
COMES NOW the Defendant, CARL TORJAGBO, by and through his
undersigned counsel, and moves the Court for a one-day extension of time to file his
post-hearing brief in support of his motion and amended motion to suppress
statements, docs. 44 & 88. In support of this motion, Mr. Torjagbo states the
following.
Pending before the Court are Mr. Torjagbo’s motion and amended motion to
suppress statements, docs. 44 & 88. The Court conducted an evidentiary hearing on
those motions on June 5, 2024. Mr. Torjagbo’s post-hearing brief is due to be filed
by August 5, 2024. Due to the press of undersigned counsel’s responsibilities on
other matters, Mr. Torjagbo requests an extension of one (1) day to file his post-
hearing brief. Undersigned counsel also requests that the deadlines for filing the
Case 1:22-cr-00171-MLB-RDC Document 107 Filed 08/12/24 Page 1 of 4

Government’s responsive brief and Mr. Torjagbo’s reply brief be re-set
commensurately.
Undersigned counsel posits that the time covered by this requested extension of
time would be excludable under the provisions of the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. §
3161. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(1)(D) excludes delay resulting from any pretrial motion,
from the filing of the motion through the conclusion of the hearing on, or other prompt
disposition of, such motion. 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(1)(D). Subsections 3161(h)(7)(A)
and (h)(7)(B)(iv) authorize exclusion of delay based upon a finding that the ends of
justice outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial,
such as where the delay provides reasonable time necessary for effective preparation
by counsel, taking into account the exercise of due diligence. See 18 U.S.C. §§
3161(h)(7)(A) & (h)(7)(B)(iv).
WHEREFORE, Mr. Torjagbo respectfully requests that this motion be granted.
