STIPULATION AND ORDER MODIFYING
CONDITIONS OF SUPERVISED RELEASE
Judge: Garland E. Burrell, Jr.
It is hereby stipulated and agreed between defendant, Abraham Her, and plaintiff, United States of America, by and through their attorneys, as follows.
On September 14, 2012, the Court revoked supervised release, ordered a prison term, and ordered a new term of supervised release to commence upon Mr. Her's release from prison. Special condition no. 5 of the terms of supervised release prohibit Mr. Her from associating with any person known to be associated with an gang.
The parties agree that special condition no. 5 of supervised release may be modified to add the boldfaced, italicized language below:
The defendant shall not be a member of any gang; and shall not associate personally or in writing, or communicate directly or indirectly, with any person known by the defendant to be associated with, or a member of any gang except as approved in advance by the probation officer; [all remaining terms of the condition are unchanged].The purpose of this proposed change is to confer on the probation officer authority to allow Mr. Her to associate with persons (such as his brother-in-law, Lee Xiong) who have been identified as gang members but who are also persons he is expected to see because of family ties or other innocent connections.
Respectfully Submitted,
DANIEL J. BRODERICK
Federal Defender
