                      UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
                         DISTRICT OF NEW JERSEY


UNITED STATES OF AMERICA                  :       Hon. Jessica S. Allen

             v.                           :       Mag. No. 23-8137

DANIEL DADOUN                             :       ORDER FOR CONTINUANCE



        1.   This matter came before the Court on the joint application of Philip R.

Sellinger, United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey (Katherine M.

Romano, Assistant U.S. Attorney, appearing), and defendant Daniel Dadoun (Zach

Intrater, Esq., appearing), for an order granting a continuance under 18 U.S.C.

§ 3161(h)(7)(A) through March 15, 2024.

        2.   This Court granted one § 3161(h)(7)(A) continuance previously in this

case.

        3.   Counsel for the parties represented that this continuance is necessary

for effective preparation and to permit the parties to attempt to resolve this case

prior to indictment and thereby avoid a trial.

        4.   Counsel for the United States also represented that this continuance is

necessary to prevent any more non-excludable days under § 3161(h) from expiring.

        5.   The defendant knows that he has the right under § 3161(b) to have

this matter submitted to a grand jury within thirty days after his arrest.

        6.   The defendant, through counsel, has consented to this continuance.

        7.   FOR GOOD CAUSE, THIS COURT FINDS that this case should be

continued for the following reasons:
 Case 2:23-mj-08137-JSA       Document 9    Filed 01/12/24    Page 2 of 3 PageID: 24




             a.     The charges in this case result from a lengthy investigation, and

the United States and the defendant seek time to negotiate a protective order and

potential production of pre-indictment discovery, which is expected to include

voluminous bank records, which defense counsel will require adequate time to

review.

             b.     Both the United States and the defendant desire additional time

discuss the case and potentially to engage in plea negotiations.

             c.     Despite the exercise of diligence, therefore, the circumstances of

this case require giving defense counsel a reasonable amount of additional time for

effective preparation, and provide the parties time to consider plea negotiations,

which could render grand jury proceedings and a trial in this matter unnecessary.

             d.     Thus, the ends of justice served by granting the continuance

outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.

      IT IS, therefore:

      ORDERED that this action is continued for a period of approximately 60 days

from January 12, 2024 through March 15, 2024; and it is further

      ORDERED that those days are excluded in computing time under the Speedy

Trial Act of 1974; and it is further

 Case 2:23-mj-08137-JSA     Document 9     Filed 01/12/24   Page 3 of 3 PageID: 25




      ORDERED that nothing in this Order or the application prompting it is a

finding or representation that less than 31 non-excludable days under § 3161(h)

have expired.



                                      HON. JESSICA S. ALLEN
                                      United States Magistrate Judge

Dated: January 12, 2024

Form and entry consented to:




Katherine M. Romano                   Zach Intrater, Esq.
Assistant U.S. Attorney               Counsel for Daniel Dadoun




                                       -3-
