(a) A request to continue a trial date, whether by motion or stipulation, will not be
considered unless it sets forth in detail the reasons a continuance is necessary and
the relevant statutory citations for excludable periods of delay, if any, under the
Speedy Trial Act, 18 U.S.C. § 3161(h). The request must be accompanied by a
proposed order that contains factual findings and relevant statutory citations, if
any.
(b) Any request to extend the motions deadline to a date within 75 days of the current
trial date must also include a request to continue the trial date or must provide an
explanation why the trial date need not be continued in the event the motion
deadline is extended.
