Dear Honorable U.S. Magistrate Judge Michael T. Mason:
We, American citizens and lawful permanent residents from China living in the United States, are closely following the case U.S. v. Yang (11 CR 00458). Your wise decision to release Mr. Chunlai Yang on bond was highly appreciated and praised by the Chinese American community.
In our knowledge, Mr. Chunlai Yang is a good husband and father, and he is an honest, decent and key community leader who has long been actively involved in strengthening Sino-U.S. relations and the progress, prosperity, diligence and selfless service of the Asian-American community in the United States.
We sincerely hope that Chunlai Yang receives an open and fair trial, that his legal rights are effectively protected, and that no irrelevant or improper factors interfere with the fair judicial determination of his case.
Very sincerely,
Signature:
