AO 245B (Rev. AO 09/19-CAN 12/19) Judgment in Criminal Case
DEFENDANT: Jonathan Nguyen                                                                                      Judgment - Page 3 of 7
CASE NUMBER: CR-21-00084-001 CRB

                                       STANDARD CONDITIONS OF SUPERVISION
As part of your supervised release, you must comply with the following standard conditions of supervision. These conditions are
imposed because they establish the basic expectations for your behavior while on supervision and identify the minimum tools needed
by probation officers to keep informed, report to the court, and bring about improvements in your conduct and condition.

1)       You must report to the probation office in the federal judicial district where you are authorized to reside within 72 hours of
         RELEASE, unless the probation officer instructs you to report to a different probation office or within a different time frame.
2)       After initially reporting to the probation office, you will receive instructions from the court or the probation officer about how
         and when you must report to the probation officer, and you must report to the probation officer as instructed.
3)       You must not knowingly leave the federal judicial district where you are authorized to reside without first getting permission
         from the court or the probation officer.
4)       You must follow the instructions of the probation officer related to the conditions of supervision.
5)       You must answer truthfully the questions asked by your probation officer.
6)       You must live at a place approved by the probation officer. If you plan to change where you live or anything about your
         living arrangements (such as the people you live with, for example), you must notify the probation officer at least 10 days
         before the change. If notifying the probation officer in advance is not possible due to unanticipated circumstances, you must
         notify the probation officer within 72 hours of becoming aware of a change or expected change.
7)       You must allow the probation officer to visit you at any time at your home or elsewhere, and you must permit the probation
         officer to take any items prohibited by these and the special conditions of your supervision that he or she observes in plain
         view.
8)       You must work at least part-time (defined as 20 hours per week) at a lawful type of employment unless excused from doing
         so by the probation officer for schooling, training, community service or other acceptable activities. If you plan to change
         where you work or anything about your work (such as your position or your job responsibilities), you must notify the
         probation officer at least 10 days before the change. If notifying the probation officer at least 10 days in advance is not
         possible due to unanticipated circumstances, you must notify the probation officer within 72 hours of becoming aware of a
         change or expected change.
9)       You must not communicate or interact with someone you know is engaged in criminal activity. You must not associate,
         communicate, or interact with any person you know has been convicted of a felony, unless granted permission to do so by the
         probation officer.
10)      If you are arrested or questioned by a law enforcement officer, you must notify the probation officer within 72 hours.
11)      The defendant shall not act as a confidential informant without first notifying the probation officer.
12)      You must not own, possess, or have access to a firearm, ammunition, destructive device, or dangerous weapon (i.e., anything
         that was designed, or was modified for, the specific purpose of causing bodily injury or death to another person such as
         nunchakus or tasers).


         If the probation officer determines that you pose a risk to a third party, the probation officer may require you to notify the
         person about the risk and you must comply with that instruction. The probation officer may contact the person and confirm
         that you have notified the person about the risk. (check if applicable)

         search must be conducted by a United States Probation Officer or any federal, state or local law

        The determination of restitution is deferred until the parties reach an agreement within 90 days of sentencing. An Amended

        The defendant must make restitution (including community restitution) to the following payees in the amount listed below.


           If the defendant makes a partial payment, each payee shall receive an approximately proportioned payment, unless specified

           nonfederal victims must be paid before the United States is paid.
