SDNY MAG COURT
EXCLUSIVE, Oct 28 - In
the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York on October 26, a
detention or bond proceeding
was held by Magistrate Judge
Robert W. Lehrburger on a
defendant in a bank fraud
scheme, with a Chinese
interpreter available by
phone. Inner City Press was
there, the only media in the
Mag Court.
The
defendant Chaobin Zhang had
retained counsel, but the
interpreter repeated said he
couldn't hear him. The
complaint details multiple
fraudulent bank transactions
in Flushing, Queens and in
Manhattan, purchases at the
Apple Store, and has ATM
photos of the co-defendants.
The
Assistant US Attorney had
agreed to a bail package:
$100,000 personal recognizance
bond, with two co-signers in
two weeks; no contact with
co-defendants outside the
presence of counsel and no new
bank accounts without approval.
Retained counsel began
referring to the other
defendants, then waived any
preliminary hearing until the
thirtieth day.
The overall case
is US v. Zhang, et al.,
22-mj-8293 (Lehrburger)
