other than in a petty offense case, must contain a statement as follows:
"Excludable delay under 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h)____ will occur as a result of this
motion or of an order based thereon." (In the blank space provided, the counsel

essential witness.)
(b) Content of Orders. Except in a petty offense case, any proposed or signed
written order must contain the following final paragraph or statement:
