October 1, 1998 VIA FEDERAL EXPRESS Office of the Clerk United States Supreme Court 1 First Street, NE Washington, D.C. 20543 RE: Kevin David Mitnick v. United States, Application No. A-157 To the Clerk of the Court: Pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 22, Applicant Kevin David Mitnick hereby renews his application for bail and designates that the application be directed to Justice John P. Stevens. Recognizing that renewed applications are disfavored, this Applicant respectfully re-submits this matter on the grounds that he has been ordered detained without ever having the benefit of a detention hearing. Given this fact, this Court could not have properly found that his continued detention was legal. Under these extraordinary circumstances, re-submission of this application is justified. Respectfully submitted, RANDOLPH & LEVANAS By: Donald C. Randolph Attorneys for Applicant KEVIN DAVID MITNICK cc: David Schindler, Asst. U.S. Attorney and Christopher Painter, Asst. U.S. Attorney
