PROSECUTING ATTORNEY CASE SUMMARY AND REQUEST FOR BAIL AND/OR
3 CONDITIONS OF RELEASE

4 The facts are contained in the Certifications for Determination of Probable Cause written
by Seattle Police Detectives Christiansen and Mudd under incident numbers 11-79870 and 11-
5 55787.

6 REQUEST FOR BAIL

7 The state requests $500,000 bail and an order prohibiting contact with Natasha Natalevna
and Judge Kondo. The court at first appearance set bail at $20,000 on the DV charges, but
8 lacked much of the following information: The defendant is pending an SOC for assaulting Ms.
Natalevna in December 2007. She obtained another protection order against him in December
9 2010, and he has been flagrantly violating it, as well as interfering with the administration of
justice. He also took their child from the babysitter's home on March 3, 2011, in violation of the
10 parenting plan and the protection order. The child was not returned to his mother until defendant
was arrested on March 10, 2011, and the police found the child with the defendant's girlfriend in
11 Kent-- no where near the defendant's home in Mercer Island or the victim's Seattle home. The
defendant is also the respondent in an anti-harassment order protecting an employee of his
12 apartment management company who reports in her petition that the defendant has demanded
sex from her, threatened to sue her and have her fired, and has been asked to leave her office
13 several times. She also has been told by someone else that the defendant has a hit list and she is
on it. Additionally, the defendant is being charged today with Felony Harassment against Seattle
14 Municipal Court Judge Kondo for threatening to kill her. Bail was set at $400,000 at first
appearance on that charge. Bail is absolutely essential to ensure the defendant does not interfere
15 with the administration of justice and to prevent the commission of a violent offense.

16 The defendant, who is an active member of the Washington State bar and practices law in
Mercer Island, made a threat to kill Judge Kondo, who had raised his bail on a pending
17 Municipal Court assault case. He then got into a physical altercation with the bail bondsmen
after refusing to fill out paperwork for his bond and attempting to leave the bonding company.
18 He was arrested after this altercation and taken back into custody.

19 Signed this _____ day of March, 2011.
