DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO MODIFY CONDITIONS OF RELEASE 7p2
COMES NOW, Defendant MARTIN KAO, by and through his attorney,

Michael Jay. Green, and hereby respectfully moves this Honorable Court, pursuant
to 18 U.S.C. § 3142(c), to modify condition of release No. 7p2 of the Court’s

October 2, 2020 Minute Order (Dkt. No. 8).

Case 1:21-cr-00061-JAO Document 38 Filed 05/14/21 Page2of4 PagelD#: 161

Condition 7p2 requires as follows:

Comply with the Location Monitoring program under the direction of

Pretrial Services. The Court authorizes release under the HOME

DETENTION restriction which restricts you to your residence at all

times except for employment, education, religious services, medical,

substance abuse or mental health treatment, attorney visits, court

appearances, court-ordered obligations, or other activities pre-

approved by Pretrial Services.

Dkt. No. 8 (emphasis in original).

Because the Defendant is only allowed to leave the house for specific
reasons, the Defendant is required to get pre-approval from Pre-Trial Services, in
advance, each and every time that he needs to leave the home. This is proving to
be unnecessarily burdensome to both the Defendant and his wife, children and
elderly parents as they all depend on him for support in carrying out the most basic
needs such as schooling, transportation, shopping, and daily living activities.

Defendant has been on release for 7 months without any problem. However,
Defendant was just arraigned this week and is now looking at an extended term of
supervision while awaiting a resolution of his case. Now that the discovery
process has begun, the Defendant will also be required to spend an enormous
amount of time at his lawyer’s office reviewing the legal documents and preparing
his case.

Consequently, the Defendant respectfully requests that Defendant be placed

under a time-based curfew that is approved by Pre-Trial Services. Defendant
Case 1:21-cr-00061-JAO Document 38 Filed 05/14/21 Page3of4 PagelD #: 162

submits that said curfew would provide all of the same safeguards as the current
terms and conditions of release without the unnecessary burdens of the purpose
specific travel restrictions currently in place.

DATED: Honolulu, Hawaii, May 14, 2021.
