"San Francisco, 12:15pm PT, Mon., Aug. 6 - The
Electronic Frontier Foundation just spoke with (EFF attorney) Robin
Gross, who is down in San Jose for Dmitry's bail hearing. The judge
rubberstamped the agreement reached by Dmitry's attorney, Joe
Burton, and the U.S. Attorney. Here are the details:
ElcomSoft is putting up a $50,000 bond for Dmitry's bail. Dmitry
is being released into the custody of a local man of Russian decent
who shares mutual friends with Dmitry. Dmitry is restricted to
Northern California.
That's it. The U.S. Attorney will continue to hold Dmitry's
passport, which they confiscated when he was arrested. There is no
electronic monitoring or otherwise invasive limitation on
Dmitry.
As of 11:45am, they were still waiting outside the courthouse
for Dmitry to emerge, once the bond was paid and he was
outprocessed. EFF offline activist Katina Bishop reported that
there were a good 50 protesters outside, and the courtroom was
packed."
