ORDER 
 
Before the Court is Defendant’s pro se letter [Doc. No. 45] which appears to be 
requesting that she be transferred to home confinement. Defendant is advised that a party 
applying to the court for an order must generally submit a motion that includes the grounds 
on which it is based and the relief sought. Fed. R. Crim. P. 47. Additionally, because the 
Bureau of Prisons retains primary authority over a federal prisoner’s place of confinement, 
this Court generally lacks jurisdiction to consider a request to designate a specific place of 
imprisonment. See United States v. Miller, 594 F.3d 1240, 1242 (10th Cir. 2010). To the 
extent Defendant is seeking a compassionate release, she must do so via a properly 
supported motion. The Clerk of Court is directed to send Defendant the necessary form to 
submit such a motion. Accordingly, to the extent defendant’s letter seeks any relief, it is 
denied. 
IT IS SO ORDERED this 5
th day of June, 2026.
