Court extends electronic-home-monitoring installation deadline to Oct. 20 for defendant who requested more time
Summary
Judge Grant amended an order to allow Leslie Benson to enroll in electronic home monitoring by Oct. 20 after the defendant said earlier appointments were not available before a planned trip.
Lake Forest Park, Wash. — Judge Grant on Oct. 8, 2025, amended an order to allow defendant Leslie (Leslie Jason Benson) to enroll in electronic home monitoring (EHM) by Oct. 20, after counsel and the city raised no objection to providing additional time.
Benson told the court that the earliest available installation appointment from Secured Solutions fell on a date that would have required him to remain on monitoring through Oct. 20 because the vendor is closed on weekends; he asked to extend the installation deadline to Oct. 20 to accommodate travel plans. The prosecutor and defense counsel both indicated no objection, and the judge agreed to send an amended order to Secured Solutions allowing the later enroll date.
Why it matters: Courts sometimes adjust administrative deadlines for EHM installation when vendor scheduling or personal circumstances prevent compliance with the original date; the change preserves the sentence’s intent while allowing practical scheduling.
Court record notes: The judge requested a phone number and email for Benson for inclusion in the amended order; the court will circulate the amended order to the vendor and counsel.
