BARBARA A. McAULIFFE, Magistrate Judge.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the Defendant, JOANN BERNAL, her attorney of record, CAROL ANN MOSES, Assistant United States Attorney, KIMBERLY SANCHEZ, and Assistant United States Attorney JUSTIN GILIO that a Pretrial Release Modification for the removal of the location monitoring component of Ms. Bernal's Pretrial Release Conditions be granted due to her exceptional progress on Pretrial Release.

On June 24, 2019, Ms. Bernal was released from custody with release conditions. She was placed on Home Detention with a location monitoring ankle device. On August 8, 2019, this Court granted Ms. Bernal's request for modification of Pretrial Conditions to allow her to be absent from her home for two hours per day so that she may take her children to school in the morning and pick them up in the afternoon. On August 19, 2019, this Court granted Ms. Bernal's second request for modification of Pretrial Conditions to allow her to be removed from Home Detention and placed on Curfew between 8:00 PM and 6:00 AM.

Ms. Bernal is actively participating in counseling for mental health, as well as random substance abuse testing and community service. She has satisfied the requirements of attending meetings with CPS (Child Protective Services) and taking parenting classes weekly. Ms. Bernal has regained full custody of her three minor children with no restrictions, is working full time, and is attending school.

It is the opinion of Pretrial Services Officer Frank Guerrero that the removal of the location monitoring component for Ms. Bernal is in order due to her outstanding performance while on pretrial release. Officer Guerrero reports that Ms. Bernal has remained in full compliance with all that has been asked of her and is in complete support of this modification request. Officer Guerrero has continued to provide excellent reports on Ms. Bernal and strongly recommends the removal of the location monitoring component.
