United States of America v. Patrick D. Glenn

The opinion of the court was delivered by: Jennifer L. Thurston United States Magistrate Judge

WAIVER OF DEFENDANT'S PERSONAL PRESENCE AT PRETRIAL PROCEEDINGS [PROPOSED] ORDER THEREON

Pursuant to F. R. Crim. P. 43(b)(2) and (3), Defendant, PATRICK D. GLENN, having been advised of his right to be present at all stages of the proceedings, hereby requests that this Court proceed in his absence on every occasion that the Court may permit, pursuant to this waiver. Defendant agrees that his interests shall be represented at all times by the presence of his attorney, the Office of the Federal Defender for the Eastern District of California, the same as if Defendant were personally present, and requests that this Court allow his attorney-in-fact to represent his interests at all times. Defendant further agrees that notice to Defendant's attorney that Defendant's presence is required will be deemed notice to Defendant of the requirement of his appearance at said time and place. /// ///

Defendant makes this request because he has moved to the east coast and thus the time, distance and expense involved in traveling to Edwards Air Force Base for court appearances is a financial and personal hardship on him. Defendant wishes to limit the number of personal court appearances and minimize the time and expense of travel to court.

This request is made pursuant to Fed.R.Crim.P. 43(b)(3).

Dated: November 4, 2010 PATRICK D. GLENN

Dated: January 28, 2011 JEREMY S. KROGER Assistant Federal Defender Counsel for Defendant
