WAIVER OF APPEARANCE AND REQUEST FOR ORDER AUTHORIZING WAIVER OF APPEARANCE
SHEILA K. OBERTO, Magistrate Judge.
Defendant ORLANDO GILLAM hereby waives his right to be present in person for the status hearing currently set for November 4, 2019 at 1:00 p.m. Defendant hereby requests the court to proceed in his absence and agrees that his interests will be deemed represented at said hearing by the presence of his attorney Steven L. Crawford and/or an attorney hired by Mr. Crawford to appear. This request is based upon the fact that Mr. Gillam recently got a new job and his ability to get time off is limited and Mr. Gillam wants to continue to keep his employment which may become a hardship should he continue to miss work. Mr. Gillam has been and continues to be in contact with my office and is not a flight risk or danger to society. In addition, he has made every court appearance thus far and has kept all appointments with his pretrial service officer.
Dated: October 23, 2019
Respectfully submitted,
