violation of his supervised release, and therefore defendant’s term of supervised release shall not
be revokedl

Moreover, the Court agrees with Magistrate Judge I-Iarvey that the conduct of the
defendant and the interests of justice lead to the conclusion in this case that the motion for early
termination of supervision as successful shall be, and hereby is, GRANTED.

lt is SO ORDERED.
