necessary pretrial motions.  The pretrial conference is hereby rescheduled to

conference will be conducted via Zoom.  The Court will send meeting instructions 
to all parties via email and/or docket entry in CM/ECF a week prior to the pretrial 
conference. 
The delay between the original and the rescheduled pretrial conference shall 
be excluded from Speedy Trial Act calculations because the Court finds that the 
reason for the delay was for good cause, as the Government plans on superseding 
the indictment, and providing the defendants with additional discovery.  Therefore, 
additional time is needed for the government to supersede the indictment.  The 
interests of justice in granting the continuance outweigh the public’s and the 
defendant=s rights to a speedy trial.  18 U.S.C. ' 3161, et seq.  The clerk is 
DIRECTED to exclude time from computation under the Speedy Trial Act pursuant 
to Title 18, United States Code, Section 3161(h)(7)(A) & (B)(i). 
IT IS SO ORDERED this 26th day of October, 2020.
