ORDER
On July 1, 2010, the Court conducted a hearing to consider arguments on Defendant Dragomir Taskov's Motion to Appeal Magistrate's Order of Detention (Doc. #31). At the close of hearing the Court Ordered (Doc. #45), Plaintiff United States to file a supplement to its Opposition (Doc. #38). On July 2, 2010, the Government filed its Supplemental Memorandum (Doc. #47). Having read and considered the foregoing, the Court finds that Magistrate Judge Johnston's previous Order of detention is supported by the record. Specifically, the Court finds that by a preponderance of the evidence Defendant Taskov purposes a clear risk of flight which cannot be satisfied by the imposition of release upon conditions.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Defendant Dragomir Taskov's Motion to Appeal Magistrate's Order of Detention (Doc. #31) is DENIED, and the Order of Detention Pending Trial (Doc. #20) is hereby affirmed.
