United States v. Luis Terry Wong-Alvarez
Opinion
Wong-Alvarez seeks to appeal from a district judge’s order affirming the order of the magistrate setting a pretrial detention bond. :We remanded to the district court because neither magistrate nor district court had stated in writing the reasons for requiring a bond with the type and amounts of surety that was set, as commanded by Rule 9 FRAP. 779 F.2d 583 (11th Cir. 1985). On January 15, 1986 the magistrate entered an order setting out reasons. A magistrate is a “judicial officer” within the meaning of the Bail Reform Act. See 18 U.S.C. §§ 3041 and 3156(a)(1). We have reviewed the reasons and find no error.
AFFIRMED.
