            THE COURT has considered the joint motion to proceed with arraignment and
18
     guilty plea hearing by video or telephonic hearing, along with all the records and files in
19
     this case and the General Orders currently in effect.
20
            THE COURT FINDS that the circumstances are as set forth in the parties’ motion
21
     and that a video or telephonic arraignment and guilty plea hearing may take place as soon
22
     as practical because further delays in this case would cause “serious harm to the interests
23
     of justice,” see General Order No. 04-20, for the reasons set forth in the parties’ joint
24
     motion. Accordingly,
25
            THE COURT ORDERS that the parties may proceed with an arraignment and plea
26
     hearing by telephone and/or video conference, consistent with current procedures
