ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION
THIS MATTER came before the Court upon the government’s Motion For
Reconsideration (Docket No. 622).  This order is issued without necessity of response.
The government seeks reconsideration of the Court’s Order (Docket No. 619),
entered December 26, 2008, denying its Motion to Re-Open Detention Hearing.  The
government alleges that the “main basis for motion re-open was the fact that Claxton has
been convicted of a felony drug offense (in a separate matter) subsequent to this Court
placing him on release.”  Motion at 1.  Then asserts that the “Court’s order did not address
this basis (i.e., the main basis) for detention.”  Id. at 1-2.

Order Denying Motion For Reconsideration

In its order, however, the Court stated, “In addition, the Court finds that the
government has failed to produce any other evidence that demonstrates that the conditions
of Defendant’s pre-trial release fails to reasonably assure his appearance as required or the
safety of the community.”  Order at 2.  The Court considered the government’s evidence
and found that it failed to demonstrate that detention was required.
Accordingly, it is now hereby ORDERED that the government’s Motion For
Reconsideration (Docket No. 622) is DENIED.
