MICHAEL CHASTAINE, State Bar #121209

Attorney for Defendant
Vy Pham
STIPULATION AND ORDER FOR MODIFICATION OF PRETRIAL RELEASE CONDITIONS
Judge: Hon. Morrision England
On January 15, 2010, Vy Pham was released from custody on conditions of release which included, inter alia, condition #10, no contact with co-defendants named in the Complaint. All parties agree it is appropriate that Ms. Pham be allowed to have contact with co-defendant Keit Tran and that condition #10 should be modified to allow such contact. In fact, Pretrial Services by way of Renee Basurto is recommending that the condition precluding contact with Keit Tran now be removed.
STIPULATION
Therefore, Plaintiff, United States, and Defendant, Vy Pham, through her undersigned counsel, hereby stipulate and agree that the Court should order that the pretrial release condition previously imposed precluding contact with all co-defendants be modified to allow contact with one specific co-defendant to wit: Keit Tran. All other previously imposed conditions of pretrial release should remain in full force and effect.
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
