it is if function to determine the date of trial .in.a state -

with 2 local prosecutor, urging the disposition of pending .
charges and advising that the United States will produce ©
_ the prisoner pursugnt to a writ ad prosequendum. In this
_ ease, we are advised by the Bypreau of Prisons that,.except
