ORDER

Pending before the Court is the Motion to Stay [# 13]. Previously, the Court
stayed these proceedings for 120 days. The Court instructed the Government that
after the expiration of the 120 day period, the stay shall automatically dissolve
unless the Government can show by motion (accompanied by a status report)
reasons why the stay should not be lifted. The Government now moves pursuant to
18 U.S.C. § 981(g)(1), to extend the stay for another thirty days so that the parties
can finalize plea negotiations. Upon a review the docket, the motion, and the
relevant legal authority, the Court GRANTS the Motion [# 13]. The Court Stays
this case for an additional thirty days.
