REQUEST for Return of Property (PostTrial). Property described as:… — USA v. Ayvazyan et al (Dkt. 1141)

Summary

Defendant Arman Hayrapetyan, through counsel Jilbert Tahmazian, asks the court to allow Pre-Trial Services to return his Armenian passport, in No. CR 20-579(A)-SV W-6 (C.D. Cal.), Document 1141, filed 11/10/21. The request says the passport stayed with Pre-Trial Services after Judge Wilson issued the judgment and commitment, and that the office cannot give it back without a direct court order. Counsel argues that the passport was mainly a bond condition and that Hayrapetyan has now been sentenced. The government told defense counsel it takes no position and defers to Probation's handling of the matter.

DEFENDANT’S REQUEST FOR RETURN
a8 OF HIS ARMENIAN PASSPORT
ARMAN HAYRAPETYAN,
DEFENDANT.

Defendant Arman Hayrapetyan, by and through his attorney, Jilbert Tahmazian, hereby
requests that the Court allow Pre-Trial Services to return Mr. Hayrapetyan’s Armenian passport to
him. After the Honorable Judge Wilson issued the Court’s judgement and commitment Mr.
Hayrapetyan’s passport remained in the custody of Pre-Trial Services. After contacting Supervisory
Pre-Trial Services Officer Devona Gardner, my office learned that absent direct orders from the
Court allowing for a defendant to repossess their passport, Pre-Trail Services cannot relinquish their
possession of the passport. Accordingly, the defendant’s Armenian passport is currently with Pre-

Trial Services. Given that the submission of the passport was largely a bond condition, and

to Probation’s handling of the matter.
