Summary
This is a page from a court transcript (Case 21-770, dated April 1, 2021) where a defense attorney argues against the detention of their client. The attorney asserts that transferring funds after being dropped by a bank and filing required disclosures (SDAR) with the Treasury Department in 2018 and 2019 regarding a foreign bank account are acts of compliance, not evidence of hiding assets or intent to evade. The defense also begins to cite Judge Raggi's opinion in the Sabhnani case regarding physical restraint.

1 her. Well, when the bank drops you, you have to transfer your
2 funds out. That's true. That's what happened. So there is
3 nothing in there that's sinister, there is nothing in there
4 that shows an intent to evade, an intent to evade, and nothing
5 there that we think warrants detention.
6 One last point on the financial stuff, your Honor, if
7 I might. In the reply brief, we get a new allegation that an

10 Our client makes a legally required filing with the Treasury
11 Department, obeys the law, and discloses a foreign bank
12 account, and the government is claiming that's evidence of
13 hiding. This is all upside-down, your Honor. These are not
14 factors to be considered in exercising your discretion under
15 3142.
16 Let me turn very quickly to the other two factors that
17 are relevant for today's purposes because, as your Honor has
18 pointed out, the government is not proceeding on a
19 dangerousness claim. That is the (g)(1) and (g)(2) factors,
20 the nature and circumstances of the case, and the weight of the
21 evidence.
22 Here, I think we -- if you bear with me a moment, your
23 Honor, here, one thing to keep in mind is an observation
24 Judge Raggi made in the Sabhnani case, at page 77, where she
25 said, "The more effectively a court can physically restrain the
2 funds out. That's true. That's what happened. So there is
