ORDER EXTENDING TIME TO FILE INDICTMENT/INFORMATION
Having read and considered the parties’ Motion for an Order Extending the Time in
Which to File an Indictment/Information, and Defendant’s Knowing Waiver of Timely
Indictment/Information, the Court hereby GRANTS the Motion. In so doing, the Court
finds that the Defendant’s waiver is knowing, intelligent, and voluntary. The Court further
finds pursuant to 18 U.S.C. ' 3161(h)(7)(A), after considering the factors set forth in
18 U.S.C. ' 3161(h)(7)(B), that the ends of justice served by granting the extension
outweigh the best interest of the public and the Defendant in a speedy information,
indictment and trial. The Court makes this ends of justice finding because the failure to
grant an extension would deny counsel for the Defendant and/or the United States reasonable
time necessary for effective preparation, taking into account the exercise of due diligence,
and would result in a miscarriage of justice in that the parties desire and need additional
time to review certain informal discovery material and information, conduct their
respective investigation and analysis, and explore, negotiate and consider a possible pre-
indictment resolution of this matter.

16, 2021. The time period from the date when an indictment or information must have

December 16, 2021, shall be excluded in computing the time within which an indictment
