BARBARA A. McAULIFFE, Magistrate Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED, by and between the parties, through their respective counsel, Assistant United States Attorney Michael Tierney, counsel for plaintiff, and Assistant Federal Defender Eric V.

Ira White, Mr. Racion's third party custodian, will be present at the gathering; and Mr. Racion, who is a professional chef, will cater the event. All other conditions of Mr. Racion's pretrial release shall remain in full force and effect.
Given Mr. White's assurances that he will be with Mr. Racion throughout the event, and he will insure that Mr. Racion has no contact with minors outside his presence; Mr. Racion's supervising Pretrial Services Officer, Ali Mirgain, does not object to the proposed modification.
Pursuant to the existing Order Setting Conditions of Release, Mr. Racion is subject to home detention. Condition 7(1) currently provides:
HOME DETENTION: You are restricted to your residence at all times except for employment; education; religious services; medical, substance abuse, or mental health treatment; attorney visits; court appearances; court-ordered obligations; or other activities pre-approved by the PSO
Docket No. 12, p.2.
Based on the foregoing, the parties respectfully request that the Court modify Mr. Racion's conditions of release to allow him to attend a family gathering at the residence of Edgardo Racion, located at 1246 Avalon Drive, in Merced, California, between the hours of 10:00 am and 11:00 pm on January 25, 2020.
