`
`STANDARD CONDITIONS OF SUPERVISION
`
`As part of the defendant's supervised release, the defendant must comply with the following standard conditions of
`supervision. These conditions are imposed because they establish the basic expectations for the defendant' s behavior
`while on supervision and identify the minimum tools needed by probation officers to keep informed, report to the
`court about, and bring about improvements in the defendant's conduct and condition.
`
`1. 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 .
`
`2. After initially reporting to the probation office, the defendant will receive instructions from the court or the probation officer
`about how and when the defendant must report to the probation officer, and the defendant must report to the probation officer
`as instructed.
`
`3. The defendant must not knowingly leave the federal judicial district where the defendant is authorized to reside without first
`getting permission from the court or the probation officer.
`
`4. The defendant must answer truthfully the questions asked by their probation officer.
`
`5. The defendant must live at a place approved by the probation officer. If the defendant plans to change where they live or
`anything about their living arrangements (such as the people living with the defendant), the defendant 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, the defendant must notify the probation officer within 72 hours of becoming aware of a change or
`expected change.
`
`6. The defendant must allow the probation officer to visit them at any time at their home or elsewhere, and the defendant must
`permit the probation officer to take any items prohibited by the conditions of their supervision that he or she observes in plain
`view.
`
`7. The defendant must work full time (at least 30 hours per week) at a lawful type of employment, unless 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(cid:173)
`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 10 days before the change. If notifying the probation officer at least 10 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.
`
`8. The defendant must not communicate or interact with someone they know is engaged in criminal activity. If the defendant
`knows someone has been convicted of a 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.,
`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).
`
`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.
`
`12. If the probation officer determines the defendant poses a risk to another person (including an organization), the probation
`officer may require the defendant to notify the person about the risk and the defendant must comply with that instruction.
`The probation officer may contact the person and confirm that the defendant notified the person about the risk.
`
`13 . The defendant must follow the instructions of the probation officer related to the conditions of supervision.

`searches pursuant to this condition.

`the offender has violated a condition of his supervision and that the areas to be searched contain evidence
`of this violation. Any search must be conducted at a reasonable time and in a reasonable manner.
