A federal judge said Wednesday that a prosecution filing about the financial condition and travel histories of former Trump campaign officials Paul Manafort and Rick Gates won't be enough to persuade her to alter the terms the two men were released on after being arraigned Monday on charges of money laundering and failing to register as foreign agents.

On Tuesday, prosecutors working for special counsel Robert Mueller submitted a court filing arguing that Manafort and Gates both pose a risk of flight due to their wealth and their foreign travels.


The submission contained a series of interesting claims about the men, including that Manafort had three valid U.S. passports before surrendering them over the weekend and in March he used "an alias" to register a new email and phone before traveling to Ecuador, China and Mexico in recent months.

The filing said Manafort has claimed assets of between $19 million and $63 million in various loan applications and Gates has put his net worth variously at $2.2 million up to $30 million.

Despite laying out those details, the prosecution did not say explicitly what assets would be acceptable for bail or in what amount.

On Monday, U.S. Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson released the two men under home detention. However, Manafort committed to forfeit $10 million to the court if he fails to appear and Gates pledged to give up $ 5 million if he jumps bond.

Prosecutors said Monday they needed time to work out details of a bail package, but U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson—who has been assigned to handle the case as it progresses—said that if either side wants to alter the current arrangement it will have to propose a new one in writing.

"Any requests for review of the conditions of release must be made in the form of a written motion to the Court," Jackson wrote in a brief order Wednesday.

Both men have been ordered to appear before Jackson Thursday at 2 p.m. for her first hearing on the case.
