                                                  MEMORANDUM*
JOHN LEO CERIZO,

               Defendant - Appellant.

                    Appeal from the United States District Court
                             for the District of Hawaii
                 Susan Oki Mollway, Chief District Judge, Presiding

                            Submitted October 10, 2013**
                                 Honolulu, Hawaii

Before:        KOZINSKI, Chief Judge, FISHER and WATFORD, Circuit Judges.

       1. A district court may order restitution as part of supervised release, see 18

U.S.C. § 3563, and adjust a restitution payment schedule in light of changes in the

“defendant’s economic circumstances,” 18 U.S.C. § 3664(k). The district court

didn’t abuse its discretion by requiring Cerizo to pay his underinsured motorist

insurance award and unclaimed life insurance award towards restitution as a

condition of his supervised release. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974,

981 (9th Cir. 2009).

      2. Cerizo’s claim that the district court erred in denying him bail pending

his supervised release hearing is moot. Even if it were not, Cerizo’s long history of

dishonesty and ties outside Hawaii and the United States provided an ample basis

for denying his bail request. See United States v. Garcia, 340 F.3d 1013, 1015 (9th

Cir. 2003).
