UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. CHRISTOPHER HILT

SUSAN K. LEE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

CHRISTOPHER HILT ("Supervised Releasee") appeared for a hearing before the undersigned on January 27, 2015, in accordance with Rule 32.1 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure on the Petition for a Warrant or Summons for an Offender Under Supervision ("Petition"). Those present for the hearing included:

(1) An Assistant United States Attorney for the Government;
(2) Supervised Releasee; and
(3) An Attorney with Federal Defender Services of Eastern Tennessee ("FDS") for the Supervised Releasee.

After being sworn in due form of law, Supervised Releasee was informed or reminded of his privilege against self-incrimination accorded him under the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution. It was determined that Supervised Releasee wished to be represented by an attorney and he qualified for appointed counsel. FDS was appointed to represent Supervised Releasee. It was also determined that Supervised Releasee had been provided with and reviewed with counsel a copy of the Petition.

The Government moved that Supervised Releasee be detained without bail pending his revocation hearing before U.S. District Judge Harry S. Mattice, Jr. Supervised Releasee waived his right to a preliminary hearing and a detention hearing.

Findings

Based upon the Petition and waiver of preliminary hearing, the Court finds there is probable cause to believe Supervised Releasee has committed violations of his condition of supervised release as alleged in the Petition.

Conclusions

It is ORDERED:

(1) Supervised Releasee shall appear for a revocation hearing before U.S. District Judge Mattice.

(2) The Government's motion that supervised releasee be DETAINED WITHOUT BAIL pending his revocation hearing before Judge Mattice is GRANTED.



(3) The U.S. Marshal shall transport Supervised Releasee to a revocation hearing before Judge Mattice on February 9, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. [EASTERN].

ENTER.
