court about, and bring about improvements in the defendant's conduct and condition.
I. The defendant must report to the probation office in the federal judicial district where they are authorized to reside within 72
hours of their release from imprisonment, unless the probation officer instructs the defendant to report to a different probation
office or within a different time frame.

about how and when the defendant must report to the probation officer, and the defendant must report to the probation officer
as instructed.

getting permission from the court or the probation officer.

excuses the defendant from doing so. If the defendant does not have full-time employment the defendant must try to find full-
time employment, unless the probation officer excuses the defendant from doing so. If the defendant plans to change where the
defendant works or anything about their work (such as their position or their job responsibilities), the defendant must notify the
probation officer at least IO days before the change. If notifying the probation officer at least IO days in advance is not possible
due to unanticipated circumstances, the defendant must notify the probation officer within 72 hours of becoming aware of a
change or expected change.

knows someone has been convicted ofa felony, they must not knowingly communicate or interact with that person without
first getting the permission of the probation officer.
9. If the defendant is arrested or questioned by a law enforcement officer, the defendant must notify the probation officer within 72 hours.
10. The defendant must not own, possess, or have access to a firearm, ammunition, destructive device, or dangerous weapon (i.e.,

as nunchakus or lasers).
11. The defendant must not act or make any agreement with a law enforcement agency to act as a confidential human source or
informant without first getting the permission of the court.

officer may require the defendant to notify the person about the risk and the defendant must comply with that instruction.
