Nowak Wants Ankle Tracker Removed

Associated Press  |  August 10, 2007

ORLANDO, Fla. - Former astronaut Lisa Nowak wants a judge to let her 
remove the ankle bracelet that allows authorities to track her as she 
awaits trial on suspicion of attacking a romantic rival, calling it 
expensive and unnecessary.

Nowak is paying $105 a week - $2,940 so far - for the monitoring 
device as a condition of her release, according to a court filing her 
attorney says was made Thursday. A clerk at the Circuit Court in 
Orange County could not find the filing, but said it could be on its way.

Nowak also argues that the device interferes with her ability to 
exercise - a requirement for a Navy officer - and her ability to 
drive, fly on a commercial airplane and monitor her children in the pool.

"The device is not small, comfortable, lightweight or unobtrusive, as 
its supplier would have one believe," the filing says.
