Sec. 4285. Persons released pending further judicial proceedings
Any judge or magistrate judge of the United States, when ordering a
person released under chapter 207 on a condition of his subsequent
appearance before that court, any division of that court, or any court
of the United States in another judicial district in which criminal
proceedings are pending, may, when the interests of justice would be
served thereby and the United States judge or magistrate judge is
satisfied, after appropriate inquiry, that the defendant is financially
unable to provide the necessary transportation to appear before the
required court on his own, direct the United States marshal to arrange
for that person's means of noncustodial transportation or furnish the
fare for such transportation to the place where his appearance is
required, and in addition may direct the United States marshal to
furnish that person with an amount of money for subsistence expenses to
his destination, not to exceed the amount authorized as a per diem
allowance for travel under section 5702(a) of title 5, United States
Code. When so ordered, such expenses shall be paid by the marshal out of
funds authorized by the Attorney General for such expenses.
