BRETT TOWNSEND
REQUEST FOR AN ORDER [AND
PROPOSED ORDER] DIRECTING
THE U.S. MARSHALS SERVICE TO
PROVIDE TRANSPORTATION TO
THE DEFENDANT FROM
CALIFORNIA TO PENNSYLVANIA
Mr. Townsend is a resident of Philadelphia, was arrested there, and transported to the Eastern District of California. He was released on conditions and is supervised by the Pretrial Services Agency. Mr. Townsend wishes to return home to Philadelphia. He is indigent and without sufficient financial resources to return to Philadelphia on his own. I have contacted the U.S. Marshals Service and have confirmed that they are able to pay for transportation for the defendant to return to Philadelphia if they have a Court order directing them to do so. Therefore, Mr. Townsend requests the court to order the U.S.
Marshals Service to provide transportation to Philadelphia because he is indigent and unable to pay for the cost to return to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on his own.
Respectfully submitted,
