Summary

This legal document, page 8 of a court filing dated December 30, 2020, analyzes the legal standards for a defendant's motion for bail. The court acknowledges that the defendant has met the 'limited' burden to provide evidence against the presumption of being a flight risk, citing her financial conditions and family ties. However, citing precedents like *United States v. Mercedes* and *Martir*, the court maintains that the presumption of flight does not disappear and must still be given weight, concluding that the new information does not alter its initial determination.

Quote #2
"[a] judicial officer conducting a detention hearing should, even after a defendant has come forward with rebuttal evidence, continue to give the presumption of flight some weight by keeping in mind that Congress has found that these offenders pose special risks of flight, and that ‘a strong probability arises’ that no form of conditional release will be adequate to secure their appearance."
