IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, by and between CHRISTOPHER

CHIOU, Acting United States Attorney, and Kimberly M. Frayn, Assistant United States
17
Attorney, counsel for the United States of America, and Todd M. Leventhal, Esq., counsel for

Defendant DARNELE NELSON, that the deadline for Government’s Response to
19
Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss Indictment (ECF 28) and Motion to Suppress (ECF 29),
20
currently set for Thursday, August 19, 2021, be vacated and continued for a week, up to and
21
including Thursday, August 26, 2021.
22
This stipulation is entered into for the following reasons:

1 appropriate responses to Defendant’s motions (ECF 28 and 29). Nelson’s motions, if granted,
2 would be dispositive of the matter and the government should be allowed sufficient time to file
3 appropriate responses.
4 2. Nelson is not in custody and does not object to the continuance.
5 3. Trial is set for January 3, 2022 and will not be negatively impacted by this brief
6 weeklong extension of time to file the government’s responses.
7 4. The parties agree to the extension of time for the government to file its responses.
8 5. The requested short extension of time will not unduly prejudice the defendant
9 and is not sought for purposes of mere delay, but to provide the government the necessary time
10 to file appropriate responses. For the reasons stated above, the ends of justice would best be
11 served by a continuance of the deadlines.
12 6. Additionally, denial of this request for continuance of the deadlines could result in a
13 miscarriage of justice.
14 7. This is the first request for a continuance of the deadlines to file the responses as set
15
forth herein.
