Description
CHOY, Circuit Judge: Defendant was arrested on October 23, 1975 for making a false statement in an attempted acquisition of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(a)(6). Out on bail, he thereafter went into state custody to await possible parole revocation proceedings which had been activated by his arrest on the federal charge. Although an original trial date was scheduled for February 10, 1976, the district court on its own motion continued the case until February 17, 1976. On that date, the defendant was released on his own recognizance by the court with the stipulation that the release terms would be reconsidered if the state were to surrender custody. Also on February 17, the parties jointly moved for a continuance to March 16, 1976 to permit defendant to appear before the California Adult Authority. After another two-week continuance occasioned by the unavailability of a defense psychiatrist, both parties announced themselves ready for trial on March 30, 1976.
