Is there any evidence to support a finding that a continuance of a trial would have been inconvenience to the trial of a bank witness?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Garrett, 149 F.3d 1018 (9th Cir. 1998):

The only other indication of inconvenience that we can discern from the record is the prosecutor's statement that the government's three bank witnesses would have to alter their schedules. If the witnesses had traveled from another city or incurred great expense to testify at trial, the inconvenience might have been of some significance. See United States v. Shuey, 541 F.2d 845, 847 (9th Cir.1976) (noting inconvenience when government spent substantial time and money locating and subpoenaing witnesses from Texas and Hawaii). Here, however, all three witnesses were from in-town. There are no facts in the record that would support a finding that a one-month continuance would have caused a significant inconvenience to any of them or to anyone else involved with the trial. 2
