court filing: 20-cr-608 (JGK)
Summary
The court filing discusses the defendant's financial resources and argues that the proposed bail package is insufficient to ensure the defendant's appearance in court. The court notes that the defendant's spouse's assets largely originated from the defendant, reducing the moral suasion of the spouse co-signing the bond. The court ultimately concludes that detention is warranted due to the defendant's foreign ties, ability to live in hiding, and financial resources.

The court is reconsidering the defendant's bail request in light of new evidence, including letters from friends and family, particularly a letter from the defendant's spouse, which was not disclosed at the initial bail hearing. The court evaluates whether these new ties to the United States sufficiently mitigate the risk of flight. The court remains unconvinced that the defendant's ties would prevent her from fleeing.

The document argues that the defendant's proposed bail package is insufficient because the assets backing it originated primarily from the defendant, not her spouse, and therefore would not provide a sufficient deterrent against flight. The government maintains that the defendant's financial resources, foreign ties, and ability to live in hiding support detention. The court filing references a relevant Second Circuit case, United States v. Boustani, in discussing the limitations of private bail conditions.

The document discusses the defendant's renewed motion for bail, analyzing the burden of production and the presumption of flight.

Court Filing: 11262
The court denies the Defendant's renewed motion for release on bail, citing serious charges, strong evidence, and the Defendant's substantial resources and foreign ties as reasons to believe she is a flight risk. The Defendant had presented new information, including evidence of family ties, a detailed financial report, and waivers of her right to contest extradition, but the court found it insufficient to overcome the presumption against release.
