This matter is set to come before the Court for Preliminary Hearing or Arraignment on October 19, 2007 at 10:00 a.m. The United States has provided a substantial amount of discovery to defendants' counsel and will be providing additional discovery shortly. The parties had originally agreed to waive two days, such that the preliminary hearing could be held on October 19, 2007, which would allow counsel to review the discovery before further charging decisions are made. In light of the Court's unavailability on October 19, 2007, Michael Martin, Jessica Sanders, and Michael Anderson have agreed to waive the necessary additional time under Fed. R. Crim. P. 5 and the Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3161, such that the preliminary hearing date is extended to October 26,2007 at 10 a.m.

For the same reasons, the remaining defendant, Diallo McLinn also agrees to waive the additional time necessary to allow the preliminary hearing to occur on October 26, 2007. None of the defendants are in custody and this is the first stipulation by the parties.

Pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 5.1(d), Mr. McLinn knowingly and voluntarily waive his rights to a preliminary hearing on October 19, 2007 and agrees to extend the time for a preliminary hearing until October 26, 2007 at 10:00 a.m. The parties also agree that there is good cause present to grant the extension in light of the discovery provided and additional discovery to be provided, and for the defendant's counsel to effectively prepare. The parties also jointly request that the time between October 19, 2007 and October 26, 2007 be excluded under the Speedy Trial Clock to allow Mr. McLinn's counsel to review the discovery to be provided and effectively prepare taking into account the exercise of due diligence. See 18 U.S.C. §§ 3161(h)(8)(A) and 3161(h)(8)(B)(iv). The parties agree that the "ends of justice served by the granting of such continuance outweigh the best /// /// /// /// /// /// /// /// /// /// ///
