BARBARA A. McAULIFFE, Magistrate Judge.
Please take notice that the parties in this case have agreed to a modification of defendant GREGORY RUSSELL STANTON's ("Mr. Stanton") condition of pretrial release number six regarding his third party custodian. The current third party custodian is Mr. Stanton's mother, Bonnie Lin Anderson, who will be in Minnesota over the next couple months for the occasion of the 100th birthday of Mr. Stanton's grandmother. As a result of Ms. Anderson's travel out of state, it is in Mr. Stanton's best interest to appoint a new third party custodian who will be closer to where he is living in Hanford, California. The parties have agreed that Mr. Stanton's sister, Elizabeth Stanton ("Ms. Stanton"), should be appointed as the new third party custodian. She lives at the same residence as Mr. Stanton in Hanford and works as an elementary school teacher in the nearby town of Huron, California. Mr. Stanton's Pretrial Services Officer, Anthony Perez, has advised the parties that he approves the appointment of Ms. Stanton as the new third party custodian.
This agreement to appoint Ms. Stanton as the new third party custodian is on the basis that the modification is reasonable and in the best interest of Mr. Stanton. Should a hearing on this stipulation be necessary, Mr. Stanton requests an afternoon setting since the proposed third party custodian here, Ms. Stanton, works during the morning hours.
For the reasons stated above, the parties hereby stipulate as follows:
The Stipulation is DENIED without prejudice. The Court cannot determine whether the proposed substitution of third party custodian is temporary or permanent.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
