COMES NOW the Defendant, CHRISTOPHER CHAPMAN, and respectfully moves this

Honorable Court pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3583(e)(2) to modify the conditions of his supervised

release. In support thereof, Defendant states as follows:

1. On April 7, 2025, this Court sentenced Defendant to a term of imprisonment followed by

a three-year term of supervised release.

2. Defendant was released from Bureau of Prisons custody on February 19,2026,and is

Case Nos.: 7:24-cr-004~KKC-EBA-l

3. As part of the standard conditions of supervision, Defendant is subject to the condition

that he "must not knowingly leave the federal judicial district where [he is] authorized to

reside without first getting permission from the court or the probation officer."

4. Defendant is currently employed by C.C. Chapman's Towing & Recovery, located 9t

1031 Upper Blackben-y Rd, Ransom, Kentucky 41558, where he serves as a Roadside

Assistance Team Leader / Scene Safety Officer.

5. Defendant's employment requires active highway monitoring along the U.S. 119 corridor

and immediate response to emergency roadside situations, including assisting disabled

motorists, performing vehicle recovery services, and providing accident scene safety and

traffic control.

6. Due to the nature of emergency roadside work, Defendant must frequently travel across

state lines into West Virginia, including Mingo, Logan, Lincoln, Wyoming, McDowell,

Wayne, Cabell, Boone, and Kanawha counties.

7. Defendant works overnight patrol hours from 6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m., remains on-call 24

hours a day for emergency dispatch, and serves as a primary weekend lead. These duties

require immediate response and do not allow sufficient time to obtain case-by-case travel

permission.

Case Nos.: 7:24-cr-004-KKC-EBA-l

Importantly, this Court previously authorized substantially identical travel during

Defendant's pretrial release. By Order entered July 24, 2024 (DE 18), the Court permitted

Defendant to travel and work within the Southern District of West Virginia in addition to

the Eastern District of Kentucky.

9. The Court's prior authorization demonstrates that such travel is consistent with public

safety and appropriate under supervision.

10. Since his release, Defendant has complied with all conditions of supervised release and is

actively working toward rehabilitation and reintegration through lawful employment.

11. The current travel restriction imposes a greater deprivation of liberty than is reasonably

necessary to accomplish the goals of sentencing under 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a)» particularly

where it interferes with lawful employment and public safety services.

12. Defendant respectfully requests that the Court modify the above-referenced condition to

allow employment-related travel outside the district without the need for prior case-by-

case approval, subject to supervision.

13. Specifically, Defendant proposes that the condition be modified to read as follows:

Case Nos.: 7:24-cr-004'KKC-EBA-l

"Defendant may travel outside the Eastern District of Kentucky for verified employment

purposes with C.C. Chapman's Towing & Recovery, including travel into the State of West

Virginia and surrounding counties, provided that Defendant remains in contact with and under

the supervision of the United States Probation Office and complies with all reporting

requirements."

WHEREFORE, Defendant respectfully requests that this Court enter an Order

modifying the conditions of supervised release as set forth herein.

Respectfully Submitted,

/s^^-
