Please be advised that l have taken over representation of Ms. Soto.

Honor reserved decision whether or not Ms. Soto should be detained. A hearing is now
scheduled for Tuesday, March 18, 2008 at l0:00 a.m. at which time Your Honor intends to
render your decision. By this letter l am asking whether Your Honor would consider allowing
more testimony, either through witnesses or documents to support our position that Ms. Soto is
