CAROLYN K. DELANEY, Magistrate Judge.
The defendant, MICHAEL T. SAHLBACH, through his counsel, Malcolm S. Segal, and plaintiff United States of America, through its counsel, Assistant United States Attorney Jared Dolan, stipulate to modification of the conditions of pretrial release, as set forth below. The proposed modifications are intended to permit the defendant to remain under the supervision of Pre-Trial Services and eliminate the requirement of electronic location monitoring.
The defendant was charged with bank and wire fraud in an Indictment filed on May 1, 2014, appeared and was arraigned the next day and released on a $600,000 secured appearance bond and a $100,000 cash bond. The defendant's pretrial release is subject to pretrial supervision by Pretrial Services. The conditions of release include a travel restriction, limiting the defendant's travel to the Eastern District of California, unless he obtains prior approval from the Pretrial Services Officer, a curfew subject to modification by Pretrial Services and location monitoring. Pretrial Services has previously authorized travel to the Northern District of California for defense preparation, has modified the curfew to facilitate the defendant's employment and, by stipulations and Orders signed by the Court, been permitted to travel on separate occasions to San Diego for medical treatment. The Court has, by stipulation, authorized the removal of electronic location monitoring to permit air travel and medical treatment for substantial periods of time. The defendant has performed satisfactorily when monitoring has been removed.
Further travel is required for medical, pretrial preparation and business purposes. The United States has agreed with counsel for the defendant that location monitoring is no longer necessary to assure the defendant's presence for trial and accordingly stipulates that the Court modify the conditions of release to eliminate that requirement. The Pretrial Services Office has been advised of the stipulation and does not object to the modification.
For the reasons set forth herein above, the parties stipulate to the following:
Upon the stipulation of the parties, and good cause appearing therefore, IT IS ORDERED THAT:
The conditions of the defendant's pretrial release shall be modified to eliminate the provision that he will be subject to electronic location monitoring and Pretrial Services may remove the device and electronic monitoring effective immediately. All other conditions of release shall remain in place in accordance with previous orders of this Court.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
