USA v. Farris

1
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
WESTERN DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA
CHARLOTTE DIVISION
DOCKET NO. 3:18-cr-00099-MOC-DCK
THIS MATTER is before the Court on defendant’s Motion to Strike or, in the alternative,
Motion to Continue. Having considered defendant’s motion and reviewed the pleadings, the Court
enters the following Order.
ORDER
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that defendant’s Motion to Strike (#52) is DENIED
without prejudice, the Motion to Continue (#52) is GRANTED, this matter is continued to the
next criminal term, and the Court finds the delay caused by such continuance shall be excluded in
accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)(7)(B)(iv), as failure to grant such a continuance would deny
counsel for the defendant the reasonable time necessary for effective preparation, taking into
account the exercise of due diligence. Further, the ends of justice served by granting such
continuance outweigh the best interests of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial.
Specifically, defendant and counsel have shown a need for additional time to review newly
produced discovery, seek their own expert (responsive to a recently designated government
expert), and review such discovery for potential Brady material.
