MODIFICATION OF CONDITIONS OF RELEASE
1. By Crder, dated May 28, 2021, this Honorable Court set Conditions of Release allowing Defendant Esmerelda Ceja-Mendez to remain out of custody.
2. The Deputy Chief of the U.S. Pretrial Services for the Eastern District of California has confirmed that the Defendant has been in full compliance with her conditions of Release for almost one year and she is now seeking a comparatively minor modification to Condition “(7)(m)” under the heading “CURFEW” which states in pertinent part: You are restricted to your residence every day from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.
3. Defendant now seeks to modify her curfew conditions to allow her to attend her minor children's activities and events which occur after 5:00 p.m.
4. The modification Defendant seeks would restrict her to her residence from 9:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. every day rather than 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Ms. Beth Wetteland, Deputy Chief Pretrial Services Officer agrees with this proposed modification, as well as AUSA Pataca.
